Always good seeing 26" MTBs getting a second life. Tire choice is great, and love the 1x setup on your Giant. Cheers!

Thanks. The Giant is actually a hybrid, but I do have a 26 inch Trek MTB that I do all my mountain biking on.

The only part where there is ice is the bike parking. The roads are clear.

It's so creative but it looks really beautiful. I like it very much. Should I redo my bike like that?

I was able to obtain a pair of colorful 26 x 1.50 high-pressure Kenda Kwests on Amazon several years ago. Last year, one of them had a cord separation and I had to retire it - but I haven't been able to find a replacement tire in color. So I have a red tire staring at me in the shed wondering when it's going to get used again.
