Once I realized a fat bike could be set up so it rode like a MTB I was in. When I found out there was a suspension fork (Rock Shox
Bluto) I was hooked.
For me the fat bike had more traction, it was more stable, and brought slower speeds which me getting older and take longer to recover after a crash was just what I needed.
The newer mountain bikes are so light and fast now that when you did crash it was normally at much higher speeds.
