At last, a fat bike I like…

‘Kin Hell…

Don’t let Al see that FFS… 😆

That looks good, I’ll admit!

Now THAT is awesome.

That looks ace!!!

Instructions

1. Point downhill
2. Do not apply brakes

😀

For those failing to adjust their “scale” properly, those tyres are Big Fat Larrys – i.e. 26×4.7″ 😛

Whats the link for the photo?

I wonder if it would actually steer at the insane speeds it looks capable of.. 😯 I think I like it anyway…

I presume it’s all been tweaked so the tyres don’t hit frame/fork crown at full travel, right…?

Still looks silly, anyone remember manitou (i think) making a bike with super wide rims and sticking mxer tyres on it? early 90s I think.

Rear swingarm looks longer than standard to me to accommodate the tyres. Reminds me of the dirt monsters we hired in zermatt. Lots and lots of fun.

Just don’t get any air!

This isn’t going to help my argument with my dad: he keeps saying MTBers want to be motorbikers really.

Are they those 64 spoke Woods wheels?

That is an awesome bike stand, stable even with that monstrosity on it! 😀

christ, it’s so heavy that even a Park workstand can’t keep it fully up in the air!

I do like it though. Bet it just goes over anything.

3. or make the mistake of thinking it’ll turn

Christ!

Fat and looks a bit like a Maverick – ticks all my boxes 😯 😀

Well, it was only a matter of time… Urgh.

How long until the trend of fatbikes goes away?

How long until the trend of fatbikes goes away?

Just as soon as they become mainstream. Once Trek, Spesh, Giant and the likes start making them, you just watch the nicheists dump ’em quicker than a hot coal!

Is someone trying to force you to ride one or something.

I wasn’t aware it’d got far enough to be a “trend” yet.

Helium to reduce weight?

No singlespeed, no niche.

How does it go then?

Niche

Mainstream
Retro

You missed one:- slightly out of date but not yet retro 🙂

I believe it goes something like “Look at me! Look at me!” whilst riding the red route at Glentress

Well seeing how Brant is about to flood te market with £1k Fatbikes, I can’t see it dying down anytime soon…

Lovely, couldn’t see the point of fatbikes then had a little sit on the on-one prototype and a surly moonlander. very fun bikes
