I had one and within a year I traded it for a full rigid SS 29er. I have used that far more than I did the fat bike. It was a fun novelty in fresh snow and the one time I rode it on the beach. For daily use, for me, and for commuting, it wasn't working. Once the initial grin wears off, and you ride it daily, you start to see the limitations of what it can and can't do.
