Not really a bikepacking post, but I had to let you all know that I’ve bought another bike. This time it’s fat! And will therefore, definitely be used for bikepacking in the future.
I was looking around at the stock, or lack thereof, of fat bikes in the UK, and was close to pulling the trigger on a Trek Farley 5. Thing is, the Trek was on the other side of the country and coming in at £1,700. Which is a lot of money to drop on a bike just to see if I like it. Fate would have it that a 5 year old OnOne Fatty was about to pop up for sale just down the road, in excellent condition and only a couple of hundred quid. Sold!
I’ve not been out on it too much yet, but it is huge fun!!! Watch this space for more fat adventures.
