Fat bike recommendation

Why's that a girl color? I was looking at a Fatback in a similar shade, but they ran out of my size

its saying its a female frame on the site, tbh idc its a nice color but the order of priorities is, fit>$$$>color

why not the Wolftrax model it's only $599, hydroformed frame and cheaper with similar parts

I was just wondering about the color and had a question about sex and sizing, I am pretty set on the wolftrax since it has 190 spacing in the rear vs 170. We'll see what happens I still have to finish my new bike.

Fun to bunny hop! I'll need to shoot a vid.

Oh noo! I almost forgot that term!

The thing to consider with fat bikes is that the weight adds up pretty quickly with wheels and tires being the size they are, that’s why I decided to go with an older model but carbon fiber. But that’s just me.

Very true, and it's not always the frame, a lot of parts are tank-ish. I went with an aluminum-framed Fatboy 'cause of the shop discount, and my XL seems crazy light.

It's not. I was stirring the pot. It's a great color.

My slutty fatboy with tubeless and the carbon fork was pretty light. Like 27 lbs i think.

I've made the mistake once I'm going to see if I can get a leg over one of these to feel out the fit, with that said I'm like a 14 year old going to a wine tasting and I don't think I'll know if its right till my back hurts.

Thanks guys

My fattie I'm building for the wife might be a 17. It's got a 35 stem though so should be small
