I got my first mtb in the late 80s (traded a fully euipped aquarium for it) and fell in love with it. Had several others since then. Got a fatty in 2020 on a whim and am not going back.

I have a fat bike for winter riding but mountain bike all the way during the other seasons - I’m 57 - and hope to be at until I hit the grave - even if at 80 and beyond. Please dear Lord. I love it! Plus, the front and rear suspension is awesome - easier in the body

I’m with you I want to be be riding to the end. Thanks for watching the video. Breakout the fat bike this summer for a ride :) RIDEFAT and have a great day.

I have a full-suspension Framed Montana and use it year-round. Don't really need the suspension in the snow, but in the summer it makes ripping downhill too much fun!!

[@fatride]

What a great story! Thanks for sharing RIDEFAT and have a great week

Fat bikes are so versatile. I can ride my fat bike where I can't ride my other bikes. I can also ride my fat bike where I can ride my other bikes, although not so efficiently.

[@fatride]

I'm with you on your statement! Thanks for watching. RIDEFAT and have a great night

I’m 50 so you’ve got a couple years ahead of me. I raced professional motocross for 10 years. After 9 nine surgeries including 4 ACL’s and countless broken bones I can agree that the passion to keep the envelope never goes away even after injury’s. I love my Farley 9.8 for a few months here in northern Illinois but besides it sits in the corner alone while I ride the rest of my fleet.

[@fatride]

I did motocross also. Yeah life without scabs and something on the mend was rare… Getting older im finding I don’t bounce back as fast… But like you I still crave it. The fat bike slows the speeds down a bit :) Breakout the 9.8 this summer for a ride :) thank you for watching the video RIDEFAT and have a great weekend

How did you get accustom to the larger Q factor of a fat bike. Rode one the other day and felt as if the only way I could pedal and not have my feet hit the chain stays or cranks was to pedal bow leg.

[@fatride]

@@jonzylka9474 I have ridden the fat bike enough that I don’t even notice anymore. It did feel odd at first though.

[@jonzylka9474]

Great to know! Love the channel. Keep it up. Do you have any insight between the new Farley 9.6 or the salsa beargrease? On paper they look quite similar? Wondering how the ride is between the two.

[@fatride]

@@jonzylka9474 A) Thank you. I have been putting in the miles on the fat bike this summer so I haven’t did too many big videos…. But I have a lot of good data to start making new videos. B) Your right the two bikes geometry are very close. I personally haven’t spent enough time on the Salsa to give you a detailed answer. I know out of all the fat bikes I’ve ridden I always come back to the 9.6. Matter fact I have spent numerous hours on a titanium fat bike which the frame alone was $2,500.00 and at this time switching back to the 9.6 :) RIDEFAT and have a great day

Im 49 and have a fatbike (Canyon Dude) a enduro/trail bike and a Cyclocross (it’s more like a gravel bike, with bosses and 40 mm tires) . Will never ever get an XC bike, I don’t know what I would use it for. Going fast off-road on a twitchy and unforgiving bike without wearing knee pads is too dangerous at my age.

[@fatride]

Sounds like you have a great combination of bikes! The Canyon dude is a sweet bike. Thanks for watching the video. RIDEFAT and have a nice Sunday

[@robp6021]

Had a fat bike. Just felt it's slower on the ups and less capable on the downs. And the steering is just bad. I'm Almost 55. I don't think fat bikes are for me.

[@fatride]

Everyone has got to find what works for them :) I needed to slow my roll so it works great for me. Thanks for watching Have a great day

[@robp6021]

@@fatride absolutely. Now i spend my time riding a specialized Enduro and a Levo. All depends on how I'm feeling. Bottom line is. Just ride. Doesn't matter what type of bike you like. Just find something that will keep you on the trails.

[@fatride]

@@robp6021 I like - Just ride! Have a nice day

[@dg9bfc]
