Be still your beating heart…..I will make a few changes to the spec and re-photograph it in the next month or so 😉 Here are a few pics off the web for convenience. Im fitting a Moots Ti stem instead of the Roox, turquoise jockey wheels and I plan to reanodise the seatpost clamp. I hassled the...

There were a lot of titanium retro mountainbikes made from various manufacturers but these Somerville made ones are by far the prettiest and of course they are amazing to ride. There are so many details on them like the finest works of art. It reminds me of looking at a classic Formula 1 car up...

Not tried one of the new FATs yet but not surprised they are still such great handling bikes.

Beeeeeauuuutiful 😍 GLWTS

It would be approx twice the price if it had a BOI and it looks like a 1in headtube ( same dimension as down tube). Prob made in Somerville and painted/decalled in NY after transition.

Amazing these still pop up in NOS cond. Hope it goes to a Cog, GLWTS.

Good to hear. I got some a few years ago from member Mojo Ti, see this thread https://fatcogs.com/threads/seatpost-water-drain-protector-green-thang.3945/ Maybe he still makes them too. Stinger.

You can get Syncros posts in 425mm 29.4mm if you need the extra height. I ride m/l in the later Saratoga specs & earlier Somerville L FATs.

I would say for sure. 34 inseam is not crazy long. A M/L FAT frame fits 6-6’2” and a L 6’2” upwards. XLs typically 6’4” + FATs always tended to have longer top tubes, so depending on the year and whether its sus corrected or not guys over 6ft typically can get away with m/l or L frames.

It sold to a experienced FAT owner/restorer for a high price. Its a lovely piece of very very rare early FAT history. Look out for an amazing resto at some point 😉 Stinger.

My daughter’s 93 Monster FAT with a Manitou 2 fork painted to match. I tuned the elastomers for her lighter weight. She loves it and it rides great.

Love the colour 😎 Not sure exactly which fork you have but these guys are good for replacing elastomers. https://www.suspensionforkparts.net/eshop/ Failing that a Manitou 3/4 fork from that era would work well as they match the geometry and new elastomers are easy to come by. A good bike shop...

I have no doubt the new FAT Ti frames are absolute top quality. Chris Chance always has been an OCD perfectionist. I had a good look at pics of the welds. The few reviews I have seen on FB have been singing their praises. Carbon does nothing for me and wont last the test of time either. These...

Beautiful bikes 😍

Whos up for a detailed spec and review of the latest Ti creation from FAT ? With lots of pictures please 😁

Great price for that spec and in such nice original condition 😎

Its a softer ride than my 94 Ti but sublime with the Morati Ti forks. Its like they were made for this frame. Salsa Ti seatpost, Moots Ti bars and a Ti stem finish things off with a lovely supple but rigid ride. Love this bike. Specs - Saratoga made 97 Ti frame in M/L Morati Ti forks 415mm A-C...

Agreed, the ride quality is surreal. I have a Ti fork, stem, bars and seatpost on mine and there really is no need for suspension. Perfect handling and so comfortable to ride.

“The ride quality of the box crown is what sets it apart from all other rigid forks of its era. The road blades give it a suppleness and the straight stance gives it the needed tire clearance and surefootedness that others tried to match but never could” That just sums up FATs and their...
