John - Ive ridden extensively with both studs and regular tires through
severe Minnesota and Alberta winters. Back when winters had a fair amount
of temperature consistency I found fat MTB tires were excellent. I loved
when the cold weather hit -19*c and packed snow becomes hard and squeaky.
I second the Choco-Moose bars! They're everything I wanted the RM-016
moustache / albastache bars to be. There is a lot of real-estate. Great
control from the grips - nice position in the hook - and everything in
between. Plus I'd say they look pretty darn good.

Rivendell hillibikes are incredible trail bikes. It's funny because I
cannot stand suspension "squish". The long wheelbase and large tire
clearance makes Riv's a formidable off roader. Especially in slow steep
climbs and fast loose (non bumpy) descents.
