D2 and Mr. 40 Hands discuss cyclocross worlds and fatbikes.
Fatbike extravaganza. They check in from out on the trail on their 9:Zero:7 and Borealis fatbikes. They quickly learned that tires are a huge deal on fatbikes.
Do fatbikes make sense, why would you get one, how much would you spend on one, and would they work as an all season rig?
Want to hear what they both think about riding fatbikes, listen in.
Thanks Specialized. Fuck Trek and fuck you.
