    For under a $1000 you're hard pressed to find a fat bike with halfway decent components and a respectable weight. I found this and I was wondering if anyone had thoughts, good or bad! The house is mostly known for snowboard and ski stuff but they also do carry a fair amount of bikes. I've ordered lots of stuff from there and even visited the store in Minnesota so I know its reliable. Anyway, I'm wondering if they would be a good option for anyone on a budget!

    Yep - good cheap option. Those tires will suck for snow, and there is no option to go fatter (the front you could make fatter, but probably not the rear), but overall not a bad choice.

    Pretty cool that they come with a second wheelset too.

    At least the pre-orders do.
