Not sure if there are many fat bike riders here, but does anybody have any experience or knows of good reviews of Fatsand brand bikes (out of Florida, I think). I can find a lot on Pugsley and Salsa Mukluk, but not much on Fatsand bikes. I did read one review saying that the longer base on the Fatsand resulted in more stable but less maneuverable ride.

I'm not a trail rider like most of you, but I'd be interested in some winter riding, as well as just tackling less forgiving trails.

Thanks.

I'm also curious , though you may get better responses in the Winter Biking section , lots of those folks riding fat bikes. I really wish I could afford a super fat tire bike ...

I did post a more general question in the Winter Biking section about fat bikes, but oddly enough, didn't get a lot of responses: many just sort of said "go for it".

Winnipeg, eh? I grew up in Edmonton and lived there for 20 years before relocating to southern Ontario for the last 15 years. I don't envy your snow and cold!
