Any Fatties Out There?

[Stretched@Birth]

They are obviously good in snow, but if you read up on them the big volume tyres allow you to run very low pressures which provides a level of cushioning, making a rigid ride comfortable over rocks, gravel and roots and providing a huge amount of grip in sandy conditions... Just an interesting concept and something different to talk about

They just look like they would be difficult to pedal (maybe only for my skinny ass legs), there's are some nice pics here:

I've got a pic of one built out of bamboo on my PC, will load it when I have a chance

Ja I agree. They do look tough to pedal (and control actually). Apparently not though. I have a pic of a duallie fatty. Will load tomorrow.

I'm quite keen on the Surly Krampus. 29er with a 3 inch tyre. They go on sale in December.

There is also the possibility of converting the front of my KM to accept a 26x4" tyre

 

All I need is a Rolling Darryl rim, tyre, 135mm hub, oh and a new fork

Here's the bamboo lefty fatty.
