They've not been that mainstream very long (if they are at all) so folk haven't got bored of them yet.

You get the occasional Pugsley coming up on ebay. Thing is, they've not been out long and, until recently, there haven't been so many developments that folk are upgrading.

the same way as you don't see second hand jones or Ti-singulars come up second hand. They are such good bikes and so much fun that they'll only ever be sold in-extremis

the on-one looks better unpainted and un graphiced - thats an extreme rake on the fork !

i bought my sandman gobi used off here.

might stick it back in pending the price on a slidey 135 9zero7 which would suit my needs better !

Was originally supposed to be this month but I think it's slipped a little. Brandt put up some photos of the frames in the factory so I'm guessing the answer is 'soon'.

My pugsley does not get used that often, but when it does it is a shed load of fun, takes me to places where no other bike can. Also me and the dog use it to chase seagulls on the beaches (its nice to share a hobby)

If I was to sell it, I would be saying goodbye to the 150 foot dunes of Cornwall with massive drops, bowls and crashes.... running over crashed racers legs, and racing olive the dog along the beach.

It's going to stay.

Good value now is the new mukluk. Good spec, great bike, pretty light, and only £1300.

I've read up a little on various FB's and I believe Salsa had an issue with chain rub on the tyre, has this been sorted now? That Salsa would look good on Southport beach 😉

Too small for me Tim I'm 6ft in me heels. So a 17" or 19" frame, which would be better.

How heavy are those on ones?
I bought some rigid forks off on one and they weighed 4lb.
Hoping they aren't too bad as no doubt a second hand one will be my first fat bike.

If you do sell, what size and how much, and would you split?
