Yes, not an unusual story for a buy direct bike. You really have to go into a direct buy with your eyes wide open knowing you are on the hook for labor. If you can't perform basic bike labor you may want to reconsider. A "more expensive" bike from your LBS may not be more expensive in the...

I'm going to take my lovely fat tire and go home. I don't want to play anymore.

Me too! pffttt if you get banned because of this thread this is a pretty super soft forum! 🤣 🤣

It feels like you moved the goalpost. Your initial question was "I regret buying a fat tire bike. How about you?" Now it feels like you are talking about JUST the tires on your fat tire bike. SO is your question what do you regret about the tires on your fat tire bike? or are you just trolling?

OK, I'll play, I hate swapping summer tires for winter tires. I can't find a cheap wheelset so I swap tires onto the rims.

I think if you check into it, I bet you'll find the "real" fat tire bike craze has peaked.

Not tubeless here: 1. I swap tires in the summer and winter. Goop would get spendy. 2. I would worry about the goop freezing.

Pretty sure I can't fit them in my frame.

I'm guilty of 5" tire envy

Definitely going to get it in writing.

Mn has a farm permit that is age 15. When I was a kid it was 14 and I had one. Of course you could only use it for "farm chores".

I called my agent last week and they said they could insure them as miscellaneous vehicles. I have not returned the call yet to see what exactly this entails, but I will next week and post their response.

Agree, if you are commuting regularly on tar and gravel, fat tires, are a determent. When I turn the power off on my fat tire it feels like pedaling in wet cement. If you should lose power for some reason you will pay after 4 or 5 miles. These electric fat bikes are heavy and have the highest...

I put Arisun Big Smoohtys on for summer riding https://www.bigcatbikes.com/products/arisun-big-smoothy-electric-fat-bike-tire-26x4 Then I put on CST Toboggon for the winter https://www.utahtrikes.com/PROD-11620842.html I found them locally prepandemic for $64/each Then like Cowlitz I bought a...

I bought mine as a tool and I knew what I wanted it for. I needed an off road, all season bike that handle anything. So far I've not been disappointed with my fat tire.

Did you buy the wrong type of bike for your riding style?

Hey my Grandfather's last name is Prizbrowski! He pronounced it Shubrushski....I could never find it in the phonebook.

could you have any worse luck with this! Ouch.

Known name doesn't always equate to reliability. The Ford Aspire comes to mind. 🤣

If a $1000 ebike gets you off the couch and into a great recreational activity....sign me up. I bought a sort of budget bike for my first bike. A Biktrix Juggernaut at the time was $1700. It's still my winter/fat tire beater and I still enjoy riding it. Would I love a Norco Bigfoot for $5700...
