They are a lot of work, especially on the road with no snow. Even with the proper tire pressure, they are just slow and bulky. I have two skinny tire track bikes and the fat bike and that is it. Apartment living prevents me from really having a bike for this and a bike for that. The fat bike is my poor weather/poor road condition do it all bike. I got a good deal on it from a buddy, and in the summer it will still allow me to hit trails if I want.
