Hello, Good Eve, Just stumbled upon this site and I was just wondering if Fatbikes have hit Spain? They are getting pretty popular here and I just want to know if anyone wants to talk fatbike. Hit me up. Looking forward to see whats going on in the Espana scene. Check this out [YOUTUBE]WoIOQ76BvW4[/YOUTUBE]
Nice bikes! I've tried a Sandman bike with Maverick fork and 3.7 Surly tires, a 26er with bigger wheels than a 29er. Superb traction in all surfaces! This bikes were tested in Ainsa (Spain) http://www.sandmanbikes.com/
Hi, have a warm welcome to the forum. Some 9 months ago in this very forum I saw a thread on fatbikes. As far as I know for sure not an expert on the matter- they are not a hit in Spain yet, but who knows how fatties for now on are to be seen over here. People are really curious about how it is to regularly ride a fatbike. From what I see it is a superb bike in the snow, sand, mud, etc Take a look at that thread. First hand impressions at the time they were introduced, at least for me. AS you know, this is a Spanish forum except for this section-, so the answers were written in Spanish. If you don´t know how to speak it, Google translator always helps. Here we go: http://www.foromtb.com/showthread.p...edas-gordas-pero-de-verdad-para-nieve-y-arena Cheers!
I don't think I've ever seen one, I guess because it doesn't snow that much here in the Madrid area. In any case, Bike Radar definitely likes the Surly Bugsley. http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/article/super-bike-surly-pugsley-29421/ They look like fun!
Thanks for the info, Im eagerly awaiting for the surly moonlander and maybe bring it over there to ride. I'm sure it will turn heads.
