I look forward to your ‘new bike/component’ threads Al, they’re always interesting, and I quite like that too!
Does the tyre touch the seat tube a full travel? or is just really close taking the into account the arc of the swingarm.
Is this the first FS Fat bike around? 😀
Ta Loco…clearance is OK – it’s only 4″ travel…..for now 😀
stu – only kidding, the crank is an 83mm DH one bodged in there. Sadly I don’t think I will get a 2nd chainring in there on this frame 🙁 but will see later today.
iDave there are a few around, only 1 other in the UK AFAIK, a Maverick.
Are they? Its not really stopped me in the past I must say, esp now the High Street is being resurfaced…I’ll leave biking on the actual sand to others however!
New-build issues now sorted and working as best it can without getting re-welded (to accommodate granny gear, which it really needs, and may get in time). Needs a proper shock, ebay, here I come.

What spec. Shock do you need Al? Have quite alot of random parts around so could build you a cheap custom unit to suit if you like, very cheap that is 😀
Loco 165 x 38, i was just gonna get a float on ebay, £50 seems to do it, if you can match that I’ll put a Loco sticker on the top tube never mention your name in association with it 😀
