Health and safety would advise it needs two people to lift this bike up.

Aye we had one of these tanks brought into our workshop. £500 for Tourney gears, unsealed BB, and a headset that needs rebuilding straight out of the box. And in the top ring the chain rubs on the tyre.

330 quid at certain retailers?

Is this the Apollo of fat bikes?

Or 3 & 1/2 stone! Can't think of too many bikes you can refer to in stones.

Perhaps they called it the Fatman as the Coyote Morbidly Obese didn't hit the right note with the marketing dept.

How about 22 lbs frame only?

Mind you, with a few tweaks, it ended up a 47lb bike

I imagine riding that on sand would be so awful that you'd be grateful when greenpeace attempted to push it into the sea.

Blimey, I always assumed brooklyns were supposed to be at the light end once built! I.e. the frame was 'heavy', but included the chain device, cranks, BB etc?

Queue's of people will be pulling back muscles trying to lift these onto car roofs! Brilliant.
