Fat-bike News You Can Use
Greetings from the Fat-bike.com News Room! It is Friday, May 9th. First off, Happy Birthday to my #1 son, Garrett! Here is what’s up in fat-bike news this week!
Spinner joined the Mitchell County Mountain Goats for Mayday Mayhem in Osage, IA. The Goats are getting a really good trail system going there and it would be a good idea to check it out. You could hit Decorah and Mason City on a weekend over night and have a blast!
Looking for a new fatbike?
- Canyon is selling its Dude CF 8 on Amazon in the US. (if you click the link and buy one, we will get a small commission and you won’t pay any extra! Carbon Fiber, Shimano Deore, Raceface, Maxxis. Good stuff! You will be able to find them at REI too which means you should be able to get it serviced there. Pretty standard fat-bike fare and your local bike shop can handle it too!
We do love the Schwalbe Jumbo Jim! One of the best available fat-bike tires for a variety of conditions. If you buy it from this link we will get a small commission and you won’t pay any extra! It is like supporting the site for free!

Sven is selling his Chumba Ursa Major Titanium Fat-bike Frame! – https://everydaycycles.com/products/ursa-major-titanium-fatbike-frame
Hi all, Sven here. While we ramp the fat-bike.com machine back up we could use a few shekels in the ol’ coffers to keep the servers running and the lights on etc. The following are some items I have on eBay that, if sold, will help keep the wheels rolling true! Thanks.
This Week in Fat-bike History
I decided to make This Week in Fat-bike History a standalone Throwback Thursday feature. If you missed it this week, check out This Week in Fat-bike History From 5-11-12. What were you doing in 2012?
You can check out Full Spectrum Cycling 304 here this week. Sven and JK bring you show 304, possibly the last recorded in Studio One at PodcastMKE in Milwaukee as Studio Two nears completion. Lots of action in the Full Spectrum Cycling Show Notes. Have a gander! Get listening!
I’m still working on moving the Full Spectrum Cycling to its own page soon. Probably on a Saturday or Sunday. You can still find it at https://fullspectrumcycling.com too though.
If you’ve been around a while you may remember that we posted a bunch of shows on this site from 2018 to 2021 when Full Spectrum got it’s own site but we figure you fine folks would like to keep up with what Sven and JK have been up to.
