FAT CAAD is coming!

This thing has to be seen. They took a ground up approach and offer the narrowest Q factor going. The front end works like a real fork, not like the noodlie bluto.

Got them in stock all the way to xs
 
@jdog can the fat lefty be had on its own? Will the lefty work with a 4.8 tire on 100mm wheels?
 
I maybe warming up to a lefty due to very little options in fat category.
 
How's the geometry though? They seem like they've done a good job on this one. I'm curious as to how it would ride compared to my mukluk. I know as soon as I pull the trigger on one of these the carbon model will be out the next day.

I have a large that I will build for myself in the am. You are welcome to try it for sure.

I will add that these will be on short supply. We ordered every size. After this first batch, the next shipping window is mid March.

If you are giving thought to this, you gotta jump.

Carbon might be coming, but no sooner than a year off.

I am stoked to try it. Spec is good, Q factor is lower.
 
They claim 2.5cm less via the offset chainring on the SI crank. Its a 160mm spindle and 120mm bb shell.
 
Maybe it's my math, but that sounds like a 10mm difference. They're comparing it to a 190mm spaced crank and just using clever wording. It should read, has narrower q factor than a Blackborrow and Moonlander.
 
I just let mine go into the "public" stock. Will be taking one off the March delivery. Greatest bike ever!!
 
I had a blackboro and it felt like I was riding a horse. If this is at all narrower I will be pleased.

Not so sure about the Schwalbe tires but otherwise the spec seems easy to live with

I threw a 45nrt tire on the front.
