I keep checking to see if it's come back, but no sign of it. To be fair, I never posted much over there, but I enjoyed reading the posts.

I guess it's just another symptom that the fat bike bubble has well and truly burst. I've been trying to shift a Surly ICT frame and the silence has been deafening. Oh well, at least I get to be niche now 🙂

I thought it was a case of toys being thrown out of the pram. Scotroutes might have a bit more info.

The Facebook fat bike forum has been buzzing since we had the snow.

Ah right. Maybe I should try to track down the facebook page instead then.

The Facebook fat bike forum has been buzzing since we actually found a use for these hideous contraptions.

I don't think it's bubble related, there have been repeated outages, someone hinted at behind the scenes politics being to blame. All the same, it's a pity.

Roverpig, with regard to your ICT I was initially interested, especially when it was £850 but without wheels where it would cost £500 to buy some new it stopped being viable. I don't suppose many people have a set of 190/150 wheels kicking about. Which for my marriage is probably for the best! 😀

I'd asked around a bit as I missed the forum. Don't think it's anything bubble related. Just behind the scenes negotiations from my understanding. Shame as it's a great place for fat bike knowledge.

Seems to be an annual thing, it's a useful reference especially for UK fatbikers, but the forum traffic has been rather low over the last ~2 years.
