Yeah, not simple to delete them either 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Such a pretty bike 😎

I totally get it 😁 Its still surprises me that i feel the same enthusiasm for FAT CHANCE bicycles after so many years. They just feel like they are ALIVE.

I like the Moots crocodile logo but not the name Moots, which sounds like a disease ! 😂 I will put a FAT decal on it instead just to make the stem ‘cool’ 😉

100%…. Master welded Maserati Birdcage, Porsche 917. The days before everything was made of CF. My late father built and raced cars in the early 60s. We had March race cars in the garage in the 70s at home. When he fired the engine up in 5 mins there would be 500 people, kids and dogs all trying...

There is another WL in green with Yo/BOI fork. They just looks so much better with one.

Be still your beating heart…..I will make a few changes to the spec and re-photograph it in the next month or so 😉 Here are a few pics off the web for convenience. Im fitting a Moots Ti stem instead of the Roox, turquoise jockey wheels and I plan to reanodise the seatpost clamp. I hassled the...

There were a lot of titanium retro mountainbikes made from various manufacturers but these Somerville made ones are by far the prettiest and of course they are amazing to ride. There are so many details on them like the finest works of art. It reminds me of looking at a classic Formula 1 car up...

Not tried one of the new FATs yet but not surprised they are still such great handling bikes.

Beeeeeauuuutiful 😍 GLWTS

It would be approx twice the price if it had a BOI and it looks like a 1in headtube ( same dimension as down tube). Prob made in Somerville and painted/decalled in NY after transition.

Amazing these still pop up in NOS cond. Hope it goes to a Cog, GLWTS.

Good to hear. I got some a few years ago from member Mojo Ti, see this thread https://fatcogs.com/threads/seatpost-water-drain-protector-green-thang.3945/ Maybe he still makes them too. Stinger.

You can get Syncros posts in 425mm 29.4mm if you need the extra height. I ride m/l in the later Saratoga specs & earlier Somerville L FATs.

I would say for sure. 34 inseam is not crazy long. A M/L FAT frame fits 6-6’2” and a L 6’2” upwards. XLs typically 6’4” + FATs always tended to have longer top tubes, so depending on the year and whether its sus corrected or not guys over 6ft typically can get away with m/l or L frames.

It sold to a experienced FAT owner/restorer for a high price. Its a lovely piece of very very rare early FAT history. Look out for an amazing resto at some point 😉 Stinger.

My daughter’s 93 Monster FAT with a Manitou 2 fork painted to match. I tuned the elastomers for her lighter weight. She loves it and it rides great.

Love the colour 😎 Not sure exactly which fork you have but these guys are good for replacing elastomers. https://www.suspensionforkparts.net/eshop/ Failing that a Manitou 3/4 fork from that era would work well as they match the geometry and new elastomers are easy to come by. A good bike shop...

I have no doubt the new FAT Ti frames are absolute top quality. Chris Chance always has been an OCD perfectionist. I had a good look at pics of the welds. The few reviews I have seen on FB have been singing their praises. Carbon does nothing for me and wont last the test of time either. These...
