Fat Bike

Just thought I'd pop this up. It's different, causes a stir wherever it goes and uniquely for a Fat Bike has a triple chainset. It weighs 37lbs :shock: - but rolls really well on a track.
Looking forward to the winter now - I may change the tyres for some 'Floaters'
I've never seen another Fat Bike in the flesh
I love it !

Every time I see a fat bike I want one. But I just KNOW I'd never use it.

Love to try one but I just don't know when I'd choose it over my "normal" bike
Still, nice bike, you could crush cars with that!
That looks a lovely specimen you've got there though, enjoy it.

If in doubt, blame Wiggle.
I saw a Fat Bike for the first time a few years ago and have always wanted one. I saw this one being sold by bikeseven.co.uk and decided to go for it. I've only had time to do some flat trail rides on it so far but plan on adding my uber powerful Cree T6 LEDs to it and doing some long distance rides on it when the bad weather hits.
It's a very different ride, the suspension is in the tyres if you know what I mean, riding uphill on Tarmac is its weakness but it rolls really well on flat tracks.
I will give it a proper test over the coming weeks and if traction becomes a problem will replace the tyres with some 'floaters' to give it more grip.
The most surprising part of riding it is that everyone stops you to ask what it is as no one (including me) has ever seen one around here.
So, unusually for a roadie, I'm hoping for snow this winter
