Every now and again, we're all faced with going on a diet, and the same is true for our Fatboy. With the new Fatboy Comp Carbon, we've elevated the fat bike platform to a higher level of performance, strength, and efficiency. It features a sophisticated carbon construction that's lightweight, ultra-compliant, and stiff in all the right places for the climbs. The layup also allowed us to integrate internal cable routing to keep things clean and simple through nasty conditions. Sprinkle in a durable one-by drivetrain and some near bombproof alloy wheels, and you have a bike that will give new purpose to winter and more fun to springtime.

  • An immaculate FACT carbon fiber construction ensures that the frame is lightweight and plenty stiff in all the right places. Internal cable routing is also incorporated, ensuring that slush, sand, snow, or dirt will have no bearing on performance out on the trail

  • A FACT carbon fiber fork provides tons of compliance and absorbs chatter, while simultaneously keeping the overall weight of the bike down

  • Alloy rims have been laced to our XC Pro hubs to form a wheelset that's dependable, rugged, and efficient. So whether you're trail riding or plowing through the snow, these wheels will be the perfect mix of performance and strength

Demo rode A Carbon Fatboy

Rode a single track with lots of roots and pine needles and the bike handled it very well. The turning radius is not as quick and sharp as my Mt bike but it was easier on my body. The one big negative was that the cables running through the carbon frame were rattling and bagging the whole trip, it drove me crazy. Yes I was wearing head phones. This is a big problem that needs to be fixed. Gears shifted well, and the brakes were real good coming down very bumpy hills. Overall I liked the bike but we hesitant to buy it due to the cable noise
