I have 1 MTB. I have always had my one wicked fat since 1990. That's all I ride. Back in 1990 it was a custom build with Ti spokes, handle bars and everything. I wanted it light and it cost me around $2150 at the time. Some years back I came around here and other places and saw that Fat Chance's were being made into single speed bikes. I wasn't riding much at the time but couldn't sell and consider the horror of turning my ride into a single speed.
Last couple of years I've been riding lots more with my Fat. I ride it pretty hard for an old timer. But my butt hurts, back hurts, wrists hurt. I've never tried a SUS or even a front fork outfitted bike. The new shiny bikes are all around me. Heck, they have been for many years. But still I ride my Wicked
Surprisingly I listed my bike on Craigslist thinking I'd simply upgrade to something with newer technology. Maybe it would help my back. Funny thing is - TONS of people are inquiring about my FAT. Now I'm having second thoughts - this bike has been everywhere with me. I'm not sure I can sell it.
