Framed Minnesota Fat Bike

I have zero knowledge of the fat bike scene but came across the following closeout. It may be of interest to someone here.

Framed Minnesota Fat Bike

<p>The fat bike that started it all, the Minnesota, got a facelift. We ditched the SRAM X5 1x9 drivetrain and upgraded to a Shimano Deore M6000 wide range 1x10 drivetrain. The precision of Shimano index shifting combined with a wide range 11-42 cassette and 28 tooth front chainring gives you all...

Size (18") $479.97+ shipping after code SAVINGS. Retail is $1800.

I think the solid black version is $100 more after discount and comes in 3 sizes.

Good bike/buy?

Hard to beat, better than a Mongoose, but the frame doesn't have wide drops for bigger tires. I did take advantage for some clothing with the extra discount. Thanks

Claimed weight of 34 lbs. is not too bad.

Imagine what that would have gone for two years ago.
