If you have your heart set on a Pugsley, here's a value.

I would think long and hard about this one though.

You are going to need lots of legs to make this work.

I've talked to the guys at the shop long and hard and they'd go in this direction before a Pugsley at full price:

Front geo and interchangeability of forks with a 29'er option. Can't miss.

Think hard about pushing that huge front tire of the Pugsley through a foot of snow or mash potatoes.

Actually, I'll find a loaner of the Mukluk when I want to play, but I'd buy a Fargo 2 frameset and start building.



Good luck!
