Just thinking that an alternative option to buying a second-hand MTB might be an extra set of "winter" wheels and tyres for my Ridgeback Flight.
I'm presuming that there'll be enough clearance to fit some wider, knobblier (and possibly studded) tyres? Given how much a second set of wheels and tyres might cost is it a wise option, or am I better pursuing N+1..? I do want to go off-road (although nothing too extreme), and I'm not sure if the Ridgeback frame and lack of front suspension would cope too well with the bumpy stuff.
Thoughts please!
