http://www.craigslist.org/pen/bik/44156146.html Looks like a pretty good deal to me.

Is it an IF? There are some strinkingly similar traits to Fats on that frame. Nice deal, either way. d

Looks like a sweet ride, and the price is staying low, too... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=7297&item=7102776446&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW Someone go suck this one up.

Still in search of a 56-57cm Slim Chance road bike, or frameset. This search will probably take a while, but if someone happens to stumble onto one, I have dinero waiting. Team Violet scores bonus points. I had found that gorgeous Campy Black Metallic Slim out in California, but the price of...

Hey guys, I have a chance to acquire some parts from a bike shop that had one of those "boxes" of stuff they couldn't sell, and there are some pieces of interest that some of you may want. Would any if this stuff be of interest to anyone here? Most, if not all, is new... (1) Red Ringle rear...

This used to be my dual slalom bike, but it has been rebuit with many of my old parts for my wife, Kim. She had a Specialized Hardrock stolen a few years ago, and I always told her that I would build something up for her. I finally got off my ass and put this little vixen back together. She now...

It's here! I had the first ride on the bike this morning, and my first time on a bike in about 3 years (I know, I know, leave me alone). I can't believe how much I missed riding, and I can't believe how much I missed owning a Fat. In the weeks waiting for this bike to arrive, I had a few moments...

Hey all, while I know of the chart of frame numbers on list over at First Flight Bikes (if you haven't seen Jeff's pages yet, check them out, there is some cool MTB history there), I am planning on assembling a comprehensive database and registry of Fats all over the world. Until I can get...

Ok, so my search wasn't as exhausting as it could have been, but I found a Fat last night. I have been scouring the web in search of a frameset that was priced right and sized right. This last Friday, I stumbled onto a aqua fade Yo in M/L and sent out an e-mail to find out if it was still for...

Won them way back when for the "best crash" at a dual slalom race. They are 32 hole, black and wide mountain hoops with the hang tags still on them. I can ride super light gear, so I never laced them up. I'm sure someone could use them. I'll post a pic later today. $50 plus shipping. doug

I have a brand new Syncros 29.4 seatpost that I would be willing to trade for a new or very clean 26.4mm uncut post. Anyone saving one for a project they never started? d

Found this in a bike classifieds site while on my search for a M/L Somerville Yo Eddy. I don't know how long this has been posted, but it looks like a good deal... too bad it isn't larger. 97' TEAM FAT CHANCE (YO'EDDIE) S/M PURPLE/BLUE FADE FRAME with a BIG 1" YO' EDDIE FORK. MAVIC 650 HELIUM /...

Don't know how many bikes this would work pefectly on, but in the right odd Fat color, this could be a really cool conversation piece. I wish I had something to use it on... King Headset in lemon-lime

Can anyone who has ridden both bikes offer any comparrisons? How close are they? What improvements has IF carried over to their bikes from Fat? Just wondering... I'm contemplating an IF to hold me over while I search for a Yo. doug

Hey guys, just a check from you guys as to what you think this bike is worth. I'm looking at it for my wife, even though I'm in the process of building up my old aluminum Balance dual slalom bike for her with many of my very old 8-speed parts. Because this bike in the link is spec'd with Deore...

While cleaning out some boxes from my recent move this weekend, I found some old shots from my racing days about 9 or 10 years ago. I think it might be the only photo of my old Yo, which was the spark for this website. This is me racing at the 1994 (or maybe 1995) NORBA national race at...

Hey all, I'm glad everyone is finding their way here and getting comfortable. I have a small request for the forums here. Because we are being brought together for something very specific and personal to each of us, this community is going to be built and strengthened by it's personality and the...

Ok, I'm counting on good Fat karma to come through for me. What I would like to find is either a replica frame to what I rode back in 1994 or the right size and shape that can be restored into a similar frame. Yo Eddy! frame in Medium or M/L, preferrably in team violet and a similar-era 1"...

Well guys and gals, let me be the first to welcome you to the new site and forums for Fat City/Fat Chance bicycles. This site will be based around the forums and resulting community, with hopefully an information archive to support our lust for these bikes. I hope everyone likes what we are...
