I get the impression most UK fatbikers, are riding swamplands and beaches. Seems logical that running 8psi in 4" wide tyres, is going to allow the tyre to deform around, and grip rocky terrain. I havent tried it myself. Most probably not the most effective set-up. But fatbiking is'nt about getting from A to B as fast as possible. Its about slugging along at 10mph, and making an attempt at reaching Z.
I have no idea why somebody would want to run 4" slicks on the road. But I do find myself lusting after some black floyds. Reading reviews of the black floyd. You need to have the perfect PSI in your tyres, or the bike will handle horribly.
