Trek Updates Farley line of fat bikes. Before building up my Supply Chain Bastard<\/a> (SCB), much of the fat biking in the snow<\/a> I\u2019ve done has been on a Farley. \u00a0I didn\u2019t think anything was lacking on that bike\u2026it was fast and fun. But what Trek has done is add all sort of mounts and accessories and refocused their fatbike<\/a> on adventures in the snow.<\/p>\n Or any weather, actually.<\/p>\n Their new expedition-oriented frame is built to get spec\u2019d out..the best part, it offers bolt-on fenders. A must, if you\u2019ve ever experienced ice spray in your face on a ride.<\/p>\n I have.<\/p>\n The model shown below is the Farly 9 Winter Edition. The fork offers a shorter offset that increases reach and better balances the weight. At the under $5K price point, the bike is remarkably well equipped. Built around 27.5 tires, you still get enormous amounts of rubber (4.5\u2033) with a size that will roll faster than a 26.<\/p>\n The 9.6 is the OCLV racing rig for fast days at the groomed park. The Farley 7 comes with a Manitou Mastodon fork. You can also order the Farley 5 and build up your bike. Watch the intro video from my friend Ross below.<\/p>\n Fatbiking as a product category has certainly grown in the past decade. It\u2019s great to see a brand like Trek offering a line complete with accessories. Fund<\/p>\n \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n We’re riding townies<\/a>, adventure<\/a>, and mountain bikes<\/a>.
