    Only thing is they can take 28c tyres but 32c will be too big to fit.

    …on average it rains on less than 50% of days and lots of those its only a little sprinkle. S/East perhaps only 100 days a year. Even Here in South Wales my good bike only gets wet a couple of times a year.

    It’s not rained here for a couple of days at least but I wouldn’t have been without my winter bike today. The roads were filthy.

    Roads dry much faster in summer and they aren’t covered with filth.

    Don’t disagree, I’m not trying to say that the weather is never nice. Between March and September (where I am) the roads are indeed usually clear, and as taxi25 says it only rains <50% of days. Nevertheless that’s still approaching 75% of the time when a winter bike is the best tool for the job.

    Why ride your rubbish bike 75% of the time and your expensive bike 25%? That’s the central point.
