[extremedave]

Wtf are those? Is it 1997 again?

Move North my son. It hasn't snowed since I finished the build of the "free" Fatboy!

You’re right about there being no snow here recently. If this Covid ever lets up, I need to go visit my relatives in my home state of Michigan.

Yes please make a comeback. We all need some humor in our lives.

Snow and ice aren't needed to make fatbikes fun and useful. I have done a sixty mile road ride and various other lunacies. They're also pretty good for riding where there's no trail at all.

29er SSs are Gravel Bikes now.

Love my fat bike. I'll always have one. I ride it mostly when there isnt snow. Suspension fork is mandatory though.

Fat Epic, the original fat gravel.

Sand is just really fine gravel, no?

Yes. And rocks are less fine Gravel. And Road is smooth Gravel. 100% Gravel.

I predict a comeback for fat BIKERS in general this fall/winter. Fat BIKERS are basically SELL outs. I've seen some short fat BIKERS too. I bet there will be a big demand for people who normally wouldn't ride to want to get outside for New Year resolution pipe dreams . And obviously a fat BIKER fits the bill.

FIFY

@Patrick is ahead of his time!

He didn’t say fat on gravel.

 

[a.s.]

Had a blast on the fattie yesterday. This bike is a beast on the trails and has never seen snow.

 

[Skunkape]

Fat bikes are sold out because those were the last ones left in stores after the real bikes sold out.

I predict lots of fatbikes on the second-hand market.

Along comes the dirt roadie to to tell everyone how uncool fatbikes are. I doubt the polka dot leatard will make a comeback either, but don’t let that deter you.
