From no Fats to two Yos... Good stuff

The M is going to get painted in Team Violet and the L is most likely going to be white. I think I'll end up passing the M along as I don't think it's my size, but we'll see.

Cool beans

And they both have rigid forks!

Yeah, I'm very excited. I've always liked Fat Chance but never owned one before. We had a dealer in PA where I grew up and so I used to see them on the trails.

I love rigid bikes, and have a couple Kleins and a nice Grove Innovation with a box crown fork so these (or one of them) will be a great addition.

I will let you know. I am definitely getting it repainted and will offer it my wife first, if she doesn't want it then I'll decide what to do. I was going to built it up with a nice near mint M900 gruppo... yummm

Imron 555(white) is the color they used. My buddy had a 92 painted that color With a Team Pink fork. It was rad!!!!

mkozaczek · September 7th, 2011, 12:29 PM

Oh wow, with a pink fork?? I was going to keep the whole thing white.

We aren't that far from each other (in the Fat world). Tag me when you're done with the build and my friend and I will join you for a Fat Chance ride.

I am game for a ride around that area too. Especially if you guys know some Santa Barbara trails I should get acquainted with!

That said, it'd have to be early October~. I take off driving for CA on Tuesday, then the week after arriving I have t head to St Louis for a spell. This travel thing kind of sucks.

Upchuck · September 7th, 2011, 10:42 PM

Just sent you a PM. Guess I should have read this post first.

I know some great SB trails. And a few in between SB and where I live in TO.

Will do. I just bought a third one, an M/L I think so now I'll have three in the hopper... crazy
