Hmm the only carbon bike I think I would ever contemplate buying if I could afford it, rumoured to have locked up scram 1x11 drivetrains for a year to get the 2014 models out, The name beargrease has me enthralled. The beargrease looks like being built in carbon from the end of year model too. but being me the Norco industrial grade Bigfoot looks the goods, along with my 29er Mukluk ;D XX1 $US 5500 X9 $US 3500 Frameset $US 2600

The Specialized FatBoy might be the go locally if the Norco Bigfoot doesn't get imported into Australia, difference of 2200 vs 1400 between the bikes plus a 190 rear and 4.6 wide tyres on the Specialized, to 170 rear and 4.o tyres on the Norco. Here is my Mukluk in fat and skinny mode, just needs the tyres, tubes and other ancillaries to make the fatness a reality. Ohh and derailleurs hooked up... Thanks to On One for the wheelsets.

Looks bouncey .... killer spec though most likely matches the killer price.

Not exactly the intended discipline, but out of all the fatbike geos the Fatty does have the best suited to decending. ...... seat mount seems quiet and smooth but the helmet mount shows how much he was getting pingponged. Ill give him this though ... he nailed every C line through the rock gardens. Nuts like water melons for entering a DH race ... kudos.
