@Dan,

Because the only one's we've seen for sale in the UK are (courtesy of Schwalbe) are around £40 a pop which is expensive for something that we'll only use once or twice a year maximum.

Duh, didn´t think of that :oops:
I have seen them for 15Euros in catalogs, but I haven´t seen anyone use them.

My bro's GF (they emigrated to Norway) concluded that regular tires sucked during the winter, she had spiked tires fitted to her bike. Was a lifehazard otherwise, I'm sure they must be used in Sweden too.

Well, I live in the south. Snow doesn´t usually stay very long, real winters are like one every five years. Besides bicycle lanes gets sanded here and the dirty roads aren´t any problem, its the asphalted roads without bicycle lanes that gets icy because of that @£$@£?${?{[]"¤"#%¤/& roadsalt.
Icy leafs are a far worse danger on dirt roads.
