Gday from Australia... not many of us FAT users down here in OZ... they were so damn expensive here.... I actually came across mine by chance - fat chance - and it was given to me on the condition I would never sell it... Fat Chance that will happen. Anyhow - I got a Team Fat from late 80's that I had a 1 1/8 headtube expertly grafted on.... and now its my wicked single spped with HUGI hubs and White Bros SL72 XC forks... awesome feeling blasting past peeps on their ;atest and greatest.... I keep telling them that their Tiawanese bikes have got no soul... so - what other machines do people have besides their FATS ? I got a turner, cromo stumpjumper, litespeed and a ritchey

G'day mate! I have a Yo Eddy and a Chris Chance Road. I also own a Raleigh record Ace with Shimano Sante gruppo (1987?) and Rocky Mountain Summit RL from 1991. Cheers.

I have tried to limit myself to just Fats, there are too many other nice bikes out there and I can't have them all.
That said, I do have a very nice Masi Team 3V road bike, other than that it's just Fats....Fats....Fats... |

My Fat is currently stripped back to bare frame, in the 18 months I've owned the Buckshaver I've never had the opportunity to ride it properly so it's packed up nice and safely now.
Other bikes are all modern; 2004 Cannondale F900 2005 Gary Fisher Big Sur 2001 Stumpy M2 (S/S) 2002 Giant AC Team All great fun to ride but not in the same league. One day there will be an IF Deluxe or Soulcraft on the list........ |
