Wow! Now 2x10 still at the same price; that would have saved me a lot of $$$ when I got mine 11 months ago. I went 2x10 from the start with my Fatty. Glad I did, though I use the big ring most of the time.
And I don't see any corners cut on other stuff, either. The only other change that I saw was the brakes; Avid DB3 instead of Elixir 1s, which I assume is a new/replacement model from Avid. The Fatty is even better than it was last year.
And the rolling chassis bundle is still up for $725 on the US site! 😉
I ordered a rolling chassis last week before they disappeared, so it should come today. I will attempt to set them up as tubeless but I should be very nervous drilling out the rims. Is there anywhere they can be sent off to that will do it ?
I was about to press the button on a fatty then noticed the carbon fork updates. Is it going to be the same as the On One fork currently available but in a fat version or a new design?
Also, what size BB shell? I'm looking to run SS and considering a Beer components ECC.
If I was to do it again I'd go for the Rolling chassis. The BB on that chainset is pants and the headset didn't last long either.
I bought the Carver O'Beast carbon forks for mine.

If you're going to drill your rims make sure you have a decent drill. Small battery drill struggles, big hammer drill loves it 😉
18V DeWalt did mine on a couple of batteries. A Dremmel comes in handy for cleaning up the cut holes too.
