Howdy peeps, been gone awhile, riding fat bikes instead of Fat Chances. FAT stoke restored buy scoring my latest project. she is a little rough around the edges, but... modified with Surly track drops Box Crown Fork! Hammerhead Stem! Fat City bar ser#87220 cheers DC

SOLD Grello Yo! resto-project SOLD 1990 Yo Eddy ser# 006Z07 Grello Fade frame, fork and unknown brand cartridge bearing headset. $200 plus actual shipping. FIRM (the fork is worth most of that) The seat tube at bottom bracket is rusted and bubbling on the outside. The rear derailleur cable...

Yo! fork sold SOLD Original Yo Eddy fork 1" threaded 125mm steerer 390 mm axle to crown small white Fat decals were made by a buddy a few chips as shown in the picks Campy dropouts thanks, DC

SOLD I've had this one hanging around for about 10 years. This fork is one of the last forks Chris Igleheart made with the remaining tubes and pieces as Fat was closing up for good (2000ish). I rattle canned it primer then textured silver a few years back. (not beautiful in the paint dept) 1...

A word to the wise: Do not do a google image search at work (with 'Safe Search' Off) for "Monster Fat". It is much better to add the word "bicycle" to your search. There is some nasty stuff out there that contains Monster and Fat in the search criteria! Good thing I was in the repair area of...

This is the little YO! that started the revolution for me. I bought it second hand in early '94 after my Fisher Paragon got ripped off. Originally Imron white with a hot pink fork, the repaint('96 or '97) was done in Glens Falls. The silver started flaking the first time a pebble looked at...

Was cruising bike parts for a new build and stumbled on this: http://store.interlocracing.com/quadzilla425mm.html thought somebody might be looking for a new(and long) 29.4 and not have the cheese for a Thomson

Got my new printer w/scanner hooked up, I thought I'd share this old back cover of DR with you all. This was my first issue of Dirt Rag (issue 12) and I saw my first Fat at Greenlee's which was a tiny cabin of a high end Mtb shop in Western PA

:skull: I'm a bit under the weather, but rode the orange and yellow splatter WICKED to the work at the bike shop and wore my Team Grease T-shirt as a costume! Seemed appropriate. Hopefully all you MONSTER owners got out for a spin!:skull:

http://www.kingcage.com/index.html OK, what is the perfect wb cage for your FAT? Many say a Ringle. I folded a couple of those back in the day. In my eyes King Cages are the ticket! Lets see...made by a former FCC employee, made in USA of USA materials, made to last, beautiful...

Newest addition to the stable... No special place in my heart for Bontys, but cool handbuilt American steel none the less. Frame only...this one might take a while to figure out the build.

I am loving the splatter Wicked more than I ever dreamed. This bike is just so smooth and zippy. It reminds me of a B-stone XO-1, with a proper dose of supreme Fatness! The build is pretty utilitarian, mostly 550 series Deore LX, Nitto Moustache bars. Getting the bars high enough can be tough...

Playing with the Grello w/ Blue Yo! and remembered that the Yo! fork was built to fit the Specialized Ground Control 2.5. Hmmm...I wonder if that 2.6 DH tire in the back if the garage fits. You bet! The center knobs are about 3mm from the bottom of the steerer though! Suspy corrected fork...

I began the build of the Wicked that I bought from JackLantern, after some touch up paint and general frame love. This bike is going to replace the Grello with Blue Yo! as my commuter / trailer puller. The Yo! gets to be a knobby tire bike again! Put in a huge parts order today and should have...

Well not all the bikes in the garage are American steel.:) I have a thing for high quality Japanese bikes too. This one is my wife's '87 MB-2 turned into a transportation bike. It was her off road bike until her Yo came along. The old school geometry and chainstay rollercams are much better...
