Thanks Scotroutes. Not going to be able to put off this itch ’till then. Will have a look at the Specialized Fatboy early in the new year (hopefully), although LBS (Ghyllside Cycles) have a very nice new Charge Cooker Maxi in black for £850 which seems very good VFM.
Rode my mates specialized fat boy today loved it ,bit out of my budget at the moment so I have been looking at the on one fatty or the genesis caribou not sure which to go for at the moment will a 170mm back end v 190mm be a problem?

Anyone know when the Canyon Dude is going to be available? £1800ish delivered for a carbon frame and fork, nice wheels and decent spec.
That’s an attractive bike. I especially like the way it says ‘rude’ on the fork.
Hi thanks for the reply Paul no not Mr T but I will take a look at the charge I am in the Midlands not far from rocket dog I believe so far in the flesh I have looked at the kona wo the caribou and the specialized will try to find a charge to look at locally thanks again
Mostly the £, I got a 20% off code. The fatty does ride trails well though with non of the floppy steering the Kona & Genesis had. Whether that means it’ll be compromised in snow remains to be seen
Ok thanks for that the fatboy i rode yesterday felt very stable if anything i was suprised just how well it rode ,i have looked at the on one aswell and as it will be mainly used round kinver and wyre i like the sound of the geo on the on one just gotta get xmas out the way now cheers
