24" Fat City Cycles
A really interesting bike -- 24" wheels, built for an employee in 1984 or thereabouts. My uncle ran a shop in Philadelphia, The Wall, and got his hands on the bike. (He sold a lot of Fats). My dad then rode the bike for a while and then for a while a young child rode it to school in Brookline! She had no idea what she was riding!
I rescued it from school commuting duties and have been wondering what to do with it. A really interesting build, custom stem and handlebars, everything else stock. No expenses spared in the build, and it's still mostly or all original (except for the rack).
Not sure what I'm going to do with it...my '87 Wicked Fat (with the Ubrake) doesn't get ridden very much, and I've been working on building up a '01 Merlin Ti mtb for the past 3 years...still need to get some disc wheels built.
Comments appreciated.
