I built this up as a second fatbike but after two snow rides find that's it's too small for me. I'm 6'3", this would be better for someone 5'9" to 6'1". Everything is functional, and the bike rides/handles nicely. Some parts are new, some are near new, others have seen some use, as indicated by "condition" grade below. Notice the nod to MTBNJ colors ;-) $450. Located in Madison. Details here:
