Three generations of Bluetooth Speakers – L-R Boombotix OG, Noxgear 39g & Boombotix Mini Hi, my nombre esta es Gomez and I’m a gadgetaholic. I’m especially addicted to gadgets that play music. I remember all the way back to the 1960’s, when I was just a kid, we would listen to WLS (a Chicago top […]
It’s pert near fall so that means that it’s time to think about the OG of fat-bike holidays – Global Fat-Bike Day. As we’re all aware, this year is fraught with pandemic concerns and I’ve been spending a fair amount of time trying to come up with a plan that addresses everyone’s concerns. I have […]

Check out the Cedaero Dog Days of Summer Contest and you might win some cool stuff. We’ve got some photos from our readers to share today for your perusal. […]
Shortly after launching the #fattestdayride celebration, I started to think about what I should do to celebrate the Solstice. I thought that a pagan weekend of bike chicanery at Levis sounded like a good plan for what mi amigo, Erv Spanks reminded me is the third fat-bike holiday on the calendar. I somehow managed to […]
Fat-Tribe Friday is back with a coast to coast – North, East, South & West – all across the US representation of fun on bikes! Bob Bernoth is a fan of our Podcasts from New Hampshire. Dudley also hails from the Granite State and he sent us some pretty hilarious stuff along with this shot […]
Adam interviewed Ben Witt from Whisky Parts Co. at the QBP World Headquarters back in February of 2020 (Pre-Pandemic).

Take a listen and let us know what you […]
If you follow the site, you may have seen Bikenerd’s Plus Bike Editorial that we published at the end of 2019 and maybe you’ve been following some of the podcast discussions that we’ve had with Adam Blake about plus bike rim width. After digesting all of that information, I decided to have Adam build a […]
An immediate difference… that’s what I noticed after installing the Cantu Rumble wheelset on my Salsa Cycles Beargease. The question was: what was I noticing? In my initial Cantu review, I touched on the fact that double-wall carbon rims aren’t much, if any, lighter than single wall alloy rims that are available and quite popular […]
This weeks video is short. Like really short but extremely picturesque.

509 Jabit III 27.5+ at Hartmans Creek State Park (WI) Photo by Kurt Geiger Welcome to Summer 2019! We thought that it would be nice to celebrate the first day of Summer with an old school WDoF post like we used to do before we started the podcast with the same name. I’m headed to […]
In the movies, Fester was lost during a Typhoon in the Bermuda Triangle, but we dug this fester out of a big corrugated cardboard box. E-Bikes, Aluminum Handlebars and now Titanium? It’s beginning to look like an all too familiar slippery slope of full-grown bicycle geekery. So like…steel is real, but titanium is real light? […]
The Bikeiowa Pogie Lite – A Pogie for all seasons Bar Mitts, Pogies, hand covers… whatever you want to call them, Pogies (true term) have become go-to accessories for fat-bikers, gravel riders, and commuters. Providing water and wind resistance a good set of pogies can mitigate cold hands. I also always tout that while wearing […]
I was drawn to Afterglow Lake Resort by their incredible social media photo-stream. The intense sunset photography made me think back to shooting Kodachrome slide film and spoke to one of my life-long passions (photography). And it didn’t hurt that their photos feature two Bernese Mountain Dogs along with a Golden Retriever at the lodge to […]
On January 4th and 5th, this year, Jay Petervary hosted the 200 mile and 200k Fat Pursuit events, in Island Park, Idaho. We are very familiar with this event.

A year has passed since I first rode my Fatback Corvus FLT for the first time. I swear that time just goes by faster and faster when you’re having fun. The road that set me on the path to riding a Fatback Corvus FLT goes back even further than that, but you probably started reading […]

The Idaho Hot Springs Mountain Bike Route, by Adventure Cycling, is a 517 mile main route, with several single track options.

Is it to soon to dip back into the OMFB catalog? Well, it’s the day before ‘Merica’s Birffday’ and there’s nothing more ‘Merican than fat-bike funskies under the directorial supervision of Old Man Fat Bike. I’m beginning to be an OMFB fan. Maybe we should start the OMFB fan club. They have stickers for sale here. Would […]

About a week and a half ago at Chain Reaction Cycles where I’m the Service Manager, I overheard some news that some 9:ZERO:7 Bikes were headed up to a school on the Arctic Slope of Alaska. I thought that it was super cool that a school was getting bikes, but didn’t think much more about it. […]

Cuero Cycling Gloves – retro for the modern world. One could be forgiven for thinking the modern world is becoming more disposable, and even in cycling, bikes, clothing and componentry can feel like it’s made to be faster, lighter, cheaper but also less durable. Compared to the (weighty) steel path racers of our […]
Time to rethink trail side snacking. Munk Pack offers a mouth pleasing, easy to digest alternative to your typical jaw breaking and dry go-to energy bars.

Ever since Sven first reported about Tom Ritchey bringing back the Commando in the form of a steel 4″ fat-bike at NAHBS two years ago, I’ve wanted to get a chance to ride one. Ritchey is a legend and has been making mountain bikes for longer than I’ve been riding. Some of my earliest memories of […]
I read on the interwebz that the new Vee Tire Snowshoe 2XL tire will fit in a Salsa Blackborow with the rear drop outs adjusted wide open. I just got my hands on our first pair of production 2XL’s, so I emailed my contact at Salsa, Mike Riemer, up at the Q mother-ship and asked “Have […]
What goes up,…..Just seemed to keep going up. So it’s been awhile since I’ve contributed to Fat-Bike.Com, I had made a conscious decision to take a little break from hardcore cycling and racing this past year, to take care of bigger issues going on in my life. It was a tough decision earlier […]

Even before we received the new Borealis Fat Bikes Echo that we’re testing, Sven and I were talking on our Weekly Dose of Fat Radio Show about how we wanted to approach the evaluation process for this particularly interesting fat-bike. We came up with the idea to have 4 of the fastest cats that we could […]
Written by – Fattie Lumpkin “Fattie Approved”- what does it mean? Without getting too philosophical, my idea of something being “Fattie approved” signifies a general ‘good’ in things. It’s not just about bikes; it’s about enjoyment. I’ve always wanted to find a way of designating things to friends that I found to be top […]
