My New Bike
I'd like to introduce Fat Albert:
... Or at least that's my nick-name for this great 18" Speedway Cycles Fatback.
When you're about to embark on a 7500km ride through 10 deserts, up to 1,000km from the nearest town, there is no mucking around with sub-standard equipment. The Fatback represents the pinnacle of adventure mountain biking. Made exclusively from titanium, this frame and fork-set are designed to go the distance in the harshest terrain, and live to tell the tale. Given this bike accommodates 2 x 4" wheels, it's remarkable that the 18" frame weighs in at a measly 1.57kg.
