Hello all, lately I've (19m) really been wanting to learn how to ride a bike and start riding to and from places and on some local trails. I live in a very rural area and the nearest bike shop is 2-3+ hours away unfortunately. I've been looking at the Mongoose Malus and it looks really neat but I can't stress enough that I have zero knowledge on fat bikes or bikes in general, so I want to ask all you lovely people! Thank you so much in advance! :) submitted by /u/Honest_Day_947 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

First time posting in this sub ? I have a Minnesota 2.0 with the fat tire and 29er switchable wheels. Got its used 6+yrs ago. Im looking into front fork suspension options and i seen a Bluto option tossed around. I understand the age of the bike and its popularity are not ideal but for anyone who had upgraded their fork, is there any modern options available or is this still viable?? I do more road then off road/dirt riding but would like some better control over urban terrain since i live near a industrial area and roads are basically paved potholes. Im 40 and my body isnt as forgiving too l ..read more

Hi everyone, I’m pretty new to Reddit and hope someone has a similar problem or any solution would be appreciated. So basically, I have broken my fat bike’s LCD display and I have ordered a new one, the M5 LCD display. The most confusing part is that both screens are similar. The lights turn on, the horn works, but I have no throttle at all with the new display. When I plug in the old display, I have throttle. Please, someone help because I’m going nuts right now. Thank you. submitted by /u/EquivalentPraline763 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

So, I recently noticed I have cracks in my back tyre. Most noticeable on the side walls, but also a bit on the edge of the knobs. These cracks are at the same position on the back tyre. There’s also a bit of bulging on the walls but only very little and hard to see. They’ve been driven for about 2800km/1740mi and only within air pressure spec - but on the lower side as I drive a lot on dirt/gravel roads and like the cushion. No air loss so far to note. I asked the shop where I bought it, and they said I could easily drive 1000+km/621+mi on it no problem. I’m a bit sceptic though so are th ..read more

I am interested in purchasing an ebike and I am 6’2, 300lbs with an inseam of about 30-31. I have been looking for a 27.5x3 ebike, but have only found one. I am interested in plus size or fat tires because of my weight, as I believe that skinny tires may not be able to support me. If I am mistaken and tire width does not matter for my weight, please let me know. I have a budget of $1300 and would appreciate any recommendations you may have. I will primarily be using this bike on the road for exercise and transportation, but I am also interested in riding some trails. Thank you. submitted by ..read more

Hope you can help! Anyone able to advise me about On-One Fatty sizing? I'm 5' 7" and hoping to buy used On-One Fatty - so far all i can find are mediums. Would that suit? Apologies I know these questions get asked a lot but don't want to waste my/anyone else's money and time. Cheers submitted by /u/Sad-Translator1541 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

My LBS is selling their rental fleet off and offered me a 2016 Specialized Fatboy for $800 CAD with 2 sets of tires, one stock and one studded. On the other hand someone on marketplace is selling a 1 year old Salsa Mukluk with some bags and a dropper post which looks to be hardly used for $1200 CAD I’m really struggling to decide which would be the better deal as I know the tires are expensive but it seems the Mukluk has better hardware all around. I’m looking to use it for year round commuting on the east coast of Canada. Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated. submitted by /u ..read more
