Do they make winter tires for bicycles?

Since I don’t have a car I often use my bike on campus(the bus is to expensive to take like 1 or 2 stops!)
I’ve skidded and and fallen several times.
I tried using the spray can product tire grip but it’s expensive wears quickly and does not make a huge difference.
I have heard there are winter bike tires but I’m not sure

Get the ones like they have for the guys that do the tricks on bikes.
They appear to be mud grippers.

If you have a street bike then no they dont, but if you have a dirt bike then just go down and get mountain biking tires at your local bike shop or order online... they work well in the snow...

Yeah, I think they make them. But, if you're handy, you can stud your own bike tires. My brother is doing that. Just google it & it will tell you how. They have these spiky metal things coming out for extra traction.

There's no perfect way to ride on ice.

You can let a very little air out of the tyres to make them softer and spread a littel further if they are currently tight.

Generally though, ride appropriately for being on ice - slowly and ready to slip. You can't ride a bike normally on ice!

If it's only 1 or 2 bus stops, I would just walk to the campus. It's safer walking than riding bike to school in winter time(so many idiot drivers). Save your money. yes, there are winter tires for bikes.

I'm not completely sure, but I think they make much more rugged tires with deeper tread. I hope I have helped you a little. If you find a better answer, good hunting!

probably
look online or go to a bike shop

I don't doubt that they do.

But, is it worth it?

Maybe you just need to ride slower. Or be aware that the roads are slick.


They make winter tires for Steam Rollers - but who needs them?
