Bought 2 new bikes... This is the first one of them... Took it up the road... Surprisingly light, far lighter than my other Fatty...

Looks nice
Interested to know what sort of trails you're going to ride on it, it's not as if we have massive amounts of snow e.t.c, so like are you going to be riding it on normal trails like a normal bike, or just keeping it for the winter slop?

Ride it all the places I would on any other bike, like I do on my other Fatty... they're a pleasure to ride...comfortable..grippy..great climbers... and now with the Blutos.. I can push it a bit... |

Fair enough... Not going to lie, i would love one, just to experience the grip... How are they for long distance rides? My huge tyre on the front of my AM bike weighs a tonne and has so much drag, anything over 25 miles, especially if you're on tarmac, is an absolute bitch... |

I have a Reverb Dropper post spare... however this frame only accommodates the stealth version, due to all the hoses running through the frame. I climb as well on my other fatty, as i do with any other of my bikes.. but with more grip.. better for technical climbs... they're surprisingly easy to peddle. My Second Bike is the 2016 Orange P7 RS version...

How are you going to decide between which bike to ride...or at least such fatty?
I'm stopping at two bikes...one for commuting and the "proper" fun one...that's it...unless you want to sell that second fatty cheap...but then again, it would be too big for me!

Done my 40+ miles loop on my mood fatty, without issue... the rolling mass of the wheel, actually helps with rolling. Gaz borrowed mine for a short time, and he admitted pedalling was easy.. |
