Pugsley Fat Tire 10 Speed Omni Mountain Bike - 563594482
Detail
Many moons ago we began producing the Pugsley because we wanted to ride a bike that could be ridden where other bikes simply faltered. In order to do that we figured this bicycle needed to have floatation and traction the likes of which have never before been seen. Pugsley is our brilliant solution to this -and it seems to work. This bike rolls through all the sloppiest slop around.
The Pugsley frame is equipped with 135mm spaced horizontal rear-loading dropouts with a derailleur hanger. The rear end of the frame is offset 17.5mm so any type of drivetrain setup can be used without having to worry about chain-on-tire rub. Pugsley frames also comes with an internal ED coating, which is a process that coats the frame inside and out with a protective layer that provides a foundation for the finish and gives an added level of protection from corrosion on the inside of the frame. We still recommend treating your frame with a protectant such as Framesaver or Boeshield.
Pugsley is available as a frameset and as a complete bike. The frame will accept tires up to 3.8wide on 84mm rims. The fork is a 135mm spaced symmetric version with extra water bottle cage brazeons on each leg and can handle a 4.8 tire if you want to run the big meats up front. Being the supremely versatile machine it is, the addition of an offset fork gives the rider the ability to swap front and rear wheels. This can be especially handy if you were to find yourself with a blown freehub or completely annihilated rear derailleur in frigid temps or stranded deep in the indifferent forest.
The standard Pugsley complete comes with a mix of components that were chosen for reliability and value. Complete bikes come with Nate tires on 65mm rims for a wide range of drivetrain options. Microshift thumbshifters work well especially when used with mittens and trusty Avid BB7 cable disc brakes fulfill all of your speed modulating desires. This is a solid kit that will serve you well wherever you go. Pugsley is offered in sizes XS (about 14?) to XL (about 22?).
