Winter is just around the corner here in Minnesota, and that means it’s time to dust off your winter ride. For some, that means a fat bike or snow bike similar to the Surly Pugsley. I have built a handful of custom fat bikes and have been very happy with the results. I have been able to manage plenty of tire clearance with the Big Fat Larry’s paired with the Rolling Darryl rims, while still keeping good chain line and rear end offset to a minimum. I would recommend a fat bike to anybody, whether it is an A-TRAIN or something else. One thing to consider is that you really only NEED a fat bike on the snowiest of days, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that they are always a hell of a lot of fun.
Below are some glamour shots of one of the sweetest fat bikes to leave the A-train Cycles shop. Thanks to Jeff Rockne for the beautiful photographs.

Once the trusty ’65 Schwinn breaks down, which has weathered nearly fifty years of brutal winters, I shall be first in line for an A-Train Fat Tire. Awesome looking bike my friend.
