another little walmart fat bike

anyone seen it? I was in there yesterday and thought they had gotten a massif in 'til I got close to it. it's a single speed called a BMaX. it didn't have a price on it though, and I wasn't really interested enough to search someone out to give it to me. couldn't find it on line either. could be another future parts sourse.

edit: ok, it is on the site. had to use the right search words

20" Mongoose BMaX Fat Tire, Black/Gray: Kids' Bikes & Riding Toys : Walmart.com

I'd really like to see Walmart make a BIG fat tire bike. Something like a fat bike version of their 32" cruiser. Can you imagine the stuff you could just roll over on a bike like that?

if they did it with a steel cantilever type frame I could cut and weld on they'd get my money eventually.

I saw the derailleur version. I think skate park types might like it.

I'm aware of the Beast and the Dolomite and I'll probably buy one eventually, but I was envisioning something REALLY big. A monster truck of bikes. Just imagine a 32er or 36er with 4.5" wide tires aired down to 8 lbs.

I'm pretty sure Walmart could do it for cheap and I'll bet there are enough weird bike nuts out there like myself that would love to have one to make it profitable.

I may have to wander through walmart more often. a couple days back they had this bike, a massif and the newer black beast all in store. unusual here 'cause it seems like the interesting bikes hardly ever actually end up in stores here (I've still never seen the 32" "in person"). wonder if they had a dolomite I missed. I think I'd stick one on layaway if I found one in store.
