1. regarding sticking with v-brakes, you also don't need max stopping power in the winter unless you want to crash and wipe out and slide into things. however disc brakes might have other pro/cons to be considered.
2. Your frame on the green machine is rusting and flaking paint off because of the salt not being cleaned off the frame

9. Thanks very much for this!
   I find this video very helpful.
   
   Can I ask you, what is the size of the tires on your bikes?
   I've read that for winter/ice (I live in Yellowknife) narrower tires have more grip, because you have more weight/pressure per square inch of rubber.
   On the other hand, wider tires require lower pressure which also means more grip.
   
   So do you have an opinion on narrow (eg 35c) vs wide (eg 2 inches as with mountain bikes) for winter and ice?
   
   Thanks again!
10. No people think they are junk bikes because they might not be the highest quality but he takes care of them as though they are. He has two in case one breaks 
11. Could you list the tools you take with you found at 17:10?
    There are three items there I'm not familiar.  Is that a spoke wrench?  Thanks from Texas!
12. To stop flat tires you can use your old inner tubes and put them inside of the tire ontop of your good one just cut off the stems and then you have an extra layer of rubber.....haha I hate being on the road and getting a flat tire in the cold or the rain without an air pump.....but once you line the tires you can just glide over glass and piles of stuff out on the road without any worry of getting a flat I made a video a little while ago explaining how to do it if you want to feel free to check it out its on my channel
13. You and me are alike man haha I ride my bike everywhere too.....you really don't need a car a bike is all you need.....I like your video's too thanx for taking the time and uploading them
14. Those are some nice looking bicycles! =) The basket ideas are good! I use a bicycle rack on my bicycle. You can see in this video here >>> bicycle light set up
15. I just found your channel...do people think your bike is a "junk bike" because you have a milk crate on it? I'm just curious because I just attached one of those to my bike yesterday and my family laughed at me. Honestly, they don't understand bike culture, but I'm just winding what your experience has been. They want me to have a fancier basket...
16. Answered all my questions.  Cheers!
17. hey just wondering if u apply anything on the frame of your bike to prevent rust
18. when going downhill in wet winter conditions brake pads may not do the job
19. So good to hear the views of a real all season rider and I still think you're a brave man to keep riding through the Canadian winter. Great video as always, thanks for sharing.
20. Thanks for the vid. What kind of tires would you recommend for someone looking to commute in Quebec City?
