Good God Almighty - I've bought one (bright orange Fat Boy)

First ride needed to go past school at chucking out time, as well as a bit more Suburbia...

Fill in above with anything you can imagine, from screams to swerving vehicles

.

Is the bigest problem of fat bikes actually living with them?

Or could it be the most extreme fun they give riding them... hmmm?

If the UK gets a lot of snow this winter I think they'll really take off

Won't that depend on whether or not they are on a conveyor belt?

I rode one 200m down a road and had at least 10 comments/stares...

I spend half my day explaining what they are when people walk in the shop.

Local folk round here have seen enough of them not to be bothered much. Still catches out the tourists though. It helps if you go somewhere with fewer people too.

I get why people buy them now reading the posts above, it's all about being noticed and posing about on. Posertrackworld. 😆
