I bought an eFatbike almost exactly a year ago and have already put almost 4000km on it. In my case it's for recreational use though.

[–] MeanEYE@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

eFatbike? That seems counter-intuitive. You'd get far better range by downsizing tires.

[–] Critical_Insight@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, but with skinny tires you can't do this

If you ride it in winter, more power to you.

[–] Critical_Insight@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have an MTB aswell with 2.5" wide tires, but that's imposible to drive on snowy trails, so my intention was to get eFat for winter riding, but it completely supplanted my MTB.

[–] MeanEYE@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's awesome then.

Riding in sand and/or snow are pretty much the only reasons, I guess that and it absorbs a decent amount of bumps if you have shitty roads.
