I got a hold of a what I think is a 87 Fat. S/N 87406 it has a u brake mount. My question is what
the difference between a regular fat chance and a wicked? Its still has the original paint, its bright blue with a yellow fork. DaveH |

Sounds like a regular Fat Chance, pre-wicked. The Wickeds usually had a W in the serial number, and most were set up for canti's.
Cheers, bt |

To look at serial numbers and other specs, read through the frame registry thread on this forum and you'll find an Excel spreadsheet with quite a few entires. You can also go to http://www.firstflightbikes.com/fat.htm for more info. |

It has wicked decals but i can tell that they have been recently be put on. So I dont think its a wicked. But
this one is identical to both the 87 fat chance bikes on first flight bikes. Mine dose have the bullet cap stays the wicked had shown in the pic, I wonder if the Fat Chance has these type of stays? DaveH |

Dave,
Overhere you find a lot FAT scans => http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/gal...g2_itemId=2176 There also is a 87 Wicked review for example. Maybe it will provide you the information you need.

Cool scans, that's a good resource. I read through the '87 review. Loved this quote:
"The Wicked Fat Chance will go a long way toward making you look sharp." Yeah, baby! |
