This bike handles very well. Very similar to a road bike! Quick and stable steering. I have road this bike through the Iowa winter and have been impressed. For the snow and ice I put on cross tires (non-studded) and the traction seemed good enough. From the pictures I thought the shifting/braking housing was chrome, but it's a plastic. I put on some plastic Bontrager fenders which was some what of a process. I had to modify the front and back to fit properly. Still haven't got the front one yet. Other than that, this bike has performed well and is great!
