I remembered seeing a post a while back by one of the posters on MTBR, MendonCyclesmith, about using Lefty forks on fat bikes but can't find it now.

Last year at Forth Fat a bloke was riding a fat bike with a lefty fork.

well took the plunge. After a lot of reading etc put a deposit down for a large 907 frame in black with Tim a sideways cycles.

top guy and said that the frames all sold out from supplier and he has limited stock but was happy to hold the frame for me until ready for summer.

making real progress on the shoulder and it wa smy birthday so feck it lol.

will be posting up thoughts on spec list for you to rip apart lol. Gonna go for black with red bling i think.

on the subject of culling like others im thinking too many bikes now so swithering over selling/splitting the 2007 zaskar and possibly the breezer.

def keeping the modern anthem, GT RTS and avalanche singlespeed.

Nice one Keith, what spec are you going for on the 907?

 

[kaiser]

Nice one

If money was not an object I'd go 907 aswell, cool choice Keith !

If money was not an object I'd go CARBON 907 as well.

Certainly a severe case of fatty fever going around here.
