So, I live in Montreal and I have powercranks set up on my commuter bike.
My question is for the upcoming winter and rain, do I
-continue riding this road bike with powercranks
-convert it to a single speed with a regular crank +brake
-get a cheap mountain bike and trash it
Ideally the bike will have low maintenance and I'll feel comfortable leaving it in the basement of my apt in storage (I don't need mud in my apt.) I wanted to do this last year but for some reason I kept the spare road bike. Now that I have powercranks, I kind of still want to keep it... but having three bikes feels ridiculous...
