• No one there was on a fat bike, only full suspension. Why's that?

    Deep down I suspect it's because Fat Bikes aren't as much fun as a burly full-susser

  • For trail riding I'd agree.

    Acceleration is poor. At uber low PSI the tyres can squirm when cornering aggressively. Aggressive pedalling is mared by the massive q-factor.

    Basically (IMHO) a fatbike doesnt react great to any kind of aggressive riding.

    Take it out for a endurance ride over disgusting conditions. Climbing 12% snow trails seated. Descending frozen streams. Riding through water logged swapy tracks. Then its awesome.

  • Fatbike rocks on loose shale and gravel. Very satisfying descending at Brechfa on Saturday. Pretty good at Gisburn too.
