Yeah that's my reasonable option. Despite the fact that I'm constantly fantasizing over new parts and builds, I kinda like having only one bike actually
Now thats what Im talking about!
If you're riding in deep snow or wet snow that packs easily (think snowball making snow) then I do NOT recommend close fitting fenders as they'll very quickly get packed with snow and if the wheels will still turn it'll be a real chore to pedal. That's the reason I fitted my fenders the way I did as described in a post of mine upthread.
