I was also rather impressed with going even smaller, I never thought much about how much better they cut through snow and mud. I never had a dedicated mud tyre either so I wasn't aware that bigger isn't necessarily better. An investment I'll be making for spring is a set of mud tyres for the cross check

Don't think it's even possible to buy new skinny 26" mud tyres today - dunno for sure. There was this for a while, but looks discontinued now:

From memory Keith Bontrager had something to do with the design for UK winter muddy gloop.
