Title: Has anyone found studded tires for the RadMini 4?
Post by: Altema on December 21, 2020, 02:36:12 PM
Just curious, as I was looking for 20 by 3.3 inch studded tires after having a bad fall on ice last week. I can find plenty of studded tires, just not in my size.

I also have the rad mini 4 and I've looked for studded tires and have not come across any.
Seems like nobody wants 20-in studded tires.

Can one use, trailer tires which are also 20" and just a little bit narrower than the 3.3". What is the range of tire size the rad-mini can fit?

I'm not sure you want to go less than 3.3. I don't think the rims are narrow enough for smaller sizes.

I've run this studded tire for the past couple years, and it works great.

They are 20x4 and have 180 studs per tire.

Those look like they would work well, but $300 for one bicycle tire?

That's a crazy high price for a 20X4 tire. Half that price would be doable, but still questionable.  Hey I made the full member status  :D
