I live in a similar climate in central Oregon. If you ride fixed you will have more control over breaking. ( think driving a manual vs. automatic transmission). It is still pretty sketchy though. If you plan on riding in the snow a lot I would suggest riding a slightly smaller frame than you are used to because you will have more control. I think someone makes a studded tire also.

im in NC so i am not sure about heavy snow but it does well in hot conditions and everyday driving, and also at high speeds on the high way. It is also good in the rain but when washing your truck some water might get in around the liftgate area. Overall it is a great product for the price.

Wish I could help with your question. For me, it's a great bike, but the tires that came with it were too narrow for the best ride, even on roads. Changed tires and it's a great ride.

I live in Ohio and have used this stroller during the winters with no problems. The nice thing about the bigger bike-like tires is that they give you a better ride. I think as long as you can get traction, your stroller will get it as well.

Not bad at all. You have to shift into 1st or 2nd gear but it is a good bike and I really like it. The quality is pretty good and it has a great paint job. I've had mine for almost a year not. Just a note, I had a bike shop assemble it as it has a lot of adjustments and such, but it was definitely worth it. Mine is bright red in color. Great to be seen on the road.

As an avid rider, I will ride in almost all conditions. However, snow is not one of them. In snow, a road bike is not a good idea in my opinion. Now a good trail bike, would be more like it. So no wind, rain paths yes, snow equals pain.

Hi the weather in CA. Is much better than Boston. What the heck are you doing in Boston? About the bike I really have no idea. I have not been through a winter with it. I plan to go to AZ and CA for this winter so it may never see snow. I really like the smooth ride I get but cannot help you in your situation. Good luck.

It is a big machine, very heavy, but it is pretty easy to drive.I have not used it in snow yet so can't say how that would be.

I live in Colorado and have had both snow and heavy rain and had no issues. I did built a shelving system inside though just to be safe in the event that water somehow came in the bottom (hasn't happened as of now). I can't speak to wind as I placed the shed right next to the house and it's fairly protected. I will say though that after you get it built and have it loaded with garden stuff it becomes pretty sturdy. Hope that helps.

I think the wheels are fine. You can't wait until 6 inches of snow has piled up. If you get out there with it after 2 or 3 you can move the snow very easily.

Not sure about the snow, but I live on the gulf coast and mine is holding up pretty good! It is heavy duty and it is very nice, the picture doesn't do it justice!

I use it mt biking and wrapped a rubber strip around the handlebars to fatten it up a bit. It does not move unless I crash. :)

Thus far they are far superior to the Dunlops that came on my Honda Fit. The Dunlops were constantly loosing pressure each time the temps dropped. I have yet to drive them through any significant snow however they have had great traction on wet and slushy roads. I'll report back when it winter finally sets in, in Denver. :)

Yes it's great! I had knee surgery and was told to get a recumbent bike for when it gets "tight" in cold weather. I have it on tile flooring and it is stable and sturdy. Pedals are smooth but get tighter depending in how you set it.
