1991 Fat City Cycles Monster Fat

I thought I would enter this for Bike Of The Month. I figured with Halloween coming it would be Frank's best shot at getting some votes. There are already some amazing nominees this months. Frank isn't a garage queen. I don't own any of those. Just a good solid rider. It's equipped with a mix of XT and XTR components, White Industries hubs and good overall setup. Let me know wat you think!

I'm glad you like it. I considered removing it for the photos. Now I'm happy that I didn't.

Wait, it's got White Industries hubs laced to 217's in Bronze too!?!

What the holy hell.

That's a lot of coincidences!

I wonder now about those wheels. Did someone offer that as a catalog spec on a bike in 1994? Seems weird/wild there'd be two sets floating around exactly like that otherwise.

Even wilder they both ended up on very similarly specced red bikes!

Good luck in BOTM, this is definitely a lovely build.

Saddle refinishing looks great on your link. I'll have to look into it.

I did a little video walk around of my bike for my youtube channel. I thought I would link to it here as well.
