For £500 I’d be looking at second hand. Still bargains to be had but prices will start to climb with this nice weather.

Second hand definitely.

The rest depends on the rider and intended use.

Calibre Dune fatbike from GoOutdoors
£549 less 10% until 10 March . . . except a Large will probably be too small for you. So it’ll have to be a second-hand fatty . .

`Vodoo bizango. A few newish ones on eBay for 500. Sure they discount new ones down quite often from £650 too.

Maybe a whyte. Depends what you are using it for

Second hand 26er Soul or something like that. I paid £300-ish for mine then put about £150 of parts in it and it’s ridiculously good.

Another vote for Voodoo. The Hoodoo is often available for under 500

Not the Dune, mine is still going strong 3 years in but I’m 5’8″ and 12st. They seem a bit delicate for someone of your size sir.
