    I have a 907 and ride it around all my usual haunts as well as the commute to work. Versatile things, fatbikes.

    For versatile read ‘ really slow and hard work and you will sell it within a month’ _ ive not got one so my view is worthless but cant let geardanglerstu have it all his own way 😉

    In what ways are they better than your normal bike,any particular trail sections you clear on your fattie?
    If you answer they are more fun that’s ok with me.

    You still coming over next week?

    I can show you my geardangler then.

    Not better in most situations just different and fun.

    Though they do grip like shit to a blanket on steep rocky climbs.

    I have one. I ride the same trails with it as the normal bike.

    The fatbike lets me ride in snow when I couldn’t ride the regular mountain bike. It also lets me ride when the trails are wet and muddy without leaving ruts and damaging the trails like a regular mountain bike.

    I haven’t ridden my regular MTB since before Christmas! 😯

    Nice vid.
    I think part of the thing with fatbikes is that you are way less limited about where you ride em.

    Unlike conventional mountain bikes which you can only ride at trail centres do you mean? 🙂

    Moonlander – ride it everywhere – ski resorts, for bikepacking, mud, sand, down river beds. I’ve climbed 2000m in a day on it. 17kg of fun.

    Serfaus, Austria – rode up there of course..

    Built for mainly pootling about the beach with the kids but will be trying it on the trails and maybe for a bike packing trip. I’ll not be getting rid of my other bikes just yet though.

    Use it to everywhere, it is very competent on usual trails. Even use it for work as well. Just great fun to ride.

    Got one. Use it everywhere.

    Rarely ride anything else these days. Other bikes seem so bland now.

    I got to borrow one the other day, the guy who loaned it me for the day said if he had to clear out his bike’s the only one he’d keep is the fat bike, I thought that was a bit of a stretch, went out in the snow{Canada}, best fun I’ve had on a bike for as long as I can remember, rode nothing like I expected and can’t wait to buy one, I’m even looking at which one of the fleet will be sacrificial, and for the record I’m not niche at all

    Me! Just picked up a Beargrease. My teeth, it’s stupidly light and rolls remarkably quickly. I got it because Fat Bikes make me smile whenever I ride one. No better reason than that. At the weight of around 28.5 pounds, it’s going to be used for some Munro action and general off road fun!
