    616 Fabrications, Spooky bikes has made a few, Reeb, Squatch Bikes, 38 Frameworks, 44 Bikes, Moots, Lynskey, Vicious Cycles... those are off the top of my head. Bet Standard would make one.

    There's a brand here in Cleveland called Capitol Bikes that are turning out some pretty crazy stuff: http://capitolbicycles.com/fat.html

    Decent price and the dudes are nice as can be.

    The first time I saw one of the Capitol's in person, I couldn't stop staring. The geo is some of the smoothest I've seen in the category. They ride super nice too.

    I am loving the color scheme! You know me with pink AND shiny things! I haven't ever fat-biked. Thanks to Jake, I get to check it out tomorrow. Curious whether I will love it or if I'll feel "...meh." If I like it, then of course I'll be in research mode and will in short order be sporting a fatty (more than just my bod).

    EXCITED about the GFBD!!!!!!!
    I wanna ride!
