Hi ladies,
I'm a dad looking to get the next sized bike for my 14 yr daughter who is currently riding an XS hardtail mt bike. She is about 5'5" and of course still growing. Thinking of getting her a small fat bike as a replacement.
Are there any fat riders out there who can weigh in? (sorry no pun intended) I'm not sure if she will feel awkward with the extra volume tires, though she does have high volume tires on her bike now, think they 2.2s. Also the added weight is a concern. I am looking at entry level (sub $800) bikes as she not a much of a fan of riding, though we do go out together a few times a month and she is getting cramped in her current bike. Even a Mongoose Dolomite isn't out of the mix for now.
Thanks in advance for your feedback
