The guy is a flippin tool if u get stuck watching any of his rants or truck videos, but he has a playlist to buying a fat tire.

 

None on hand, but the stuff like bottom brackets are all standard diameters. Mine's actually been turned into an ebike at this point.

...

Otherwise, you can look at something like the Surley Ice Cream Wagon which you can get as a base frame only.

 

Give Carver bikes a call. I've got their O'Beast in Titanium with the Carbon fork. Then I have a second set of wheels and fork to turn it into a 29+.

They can modify the frames and i have two of their frames. Can't say enough good things about the bikes and Dana Carver. Great service all around.

Those are pretty sweet looking.

 

If you want a custom frame I highly recommend 44 bikes from New Hampshire. My next gravel bike will be from him dude has some crazy skills.

Really, it depends on your budget and how often you'll ride the fatty.

 

I ride quite a bit.

With my proximity to the beach and to some awesome snow (and Bend)... it should provide more options to ride outside of summer weather.

 

Keep your eye out on surly fat bikes. Last year they discounted the ice cream truck over 1k off if I remember. I almost snagged it but don't need any more bikes

 

What time of year did that happen? Xmas time?

 

It was actually this exact week last year. Seemed they had a surplus of stock. Not sure if it will happen again.
