#!markdown Ha! There ain't nuthin' gonna kill the fat bike, but that headline did get me to read the article… I can say unequivocally that backflips and Fat Cargo Bikes already live together in harmony! To give you a couple of examples - I rode my fattie in the dirt jumps this summer. It rocked those table-tops so hard, nobody would have guessed. I am a strong supporter of fat bike air. I also raced a fat cargo bike prototype recently in two events in Colorado, and it is fast, especially on the downhill. Yes, that's right, a fat cargo bike with XtraCycle panniers, launching the triples at night in the terrain park… Who would'a thunk it? This is just like a rode vs. mountain biker argument. Intriguing, but it doesn't get us anywhere. I'm all for pushing the limits of these bikes. Show me your stuff, people. Your fattie was intended to be rocked hard.
