Fat Bikes For Sale On Amazon

In a previous post I highlighted a number of Used Fat Bikes that were for sale on Ebay.

So today I thought I would take a look to see what was available on Amazon.

These are all new, and to be honest they are really aimed at the Budget Market.

None of these bikes would be any good for the serious rider, but they do have a place and that is for the rider who is maybe just starting out, and wants a cheap, new bike that will get them back out there.

And, if it ends up sitting in a shed after just a few rides then they have not spent a ton of money!

So these cheap bikes do have an important place, if the rider does get the bug it will not take them long to realise that they want a better bike and will end up selling the cheapy and spending a bit more on a better bike.

I have picked five bikes - no order, just the first five that pop up when you search for them.

The first is a Moma FatBike 26" wheels that have solid rims so the weight of this bike will be considerable. Shimano gears and levers and disc brakes fitted.

It also has two different frame sizes to choose from.

At £339.90 it's not a great deal of money.



The 2nd bike is a Pedalease Big Cat Fat Bike.

Steel frame and a Shimano 21 gear set up. Cut out rims to help with the weight and comes in at £359.00. It also has front suspension to soak up the bumps. 



The 3rd bike really is a budget bike!

The Ridgeyard 26" Fat Bike has a steel frame, 7 gears, disc brakes, solid rims and a sprung saddle.

Don't expect too much out of it, but if you are just riding around the park then this maybe the one for you!

At only £225.99 this has to be the most inexpensive brand new Fat Bike around!



The fourth bike is a bit more expensive but still sub £500.00

The Montana Vektor has an aluminium frame, 16 gears, disc brakes and Shimano components hence the price of £481.80



The fifth and final bike is a JHI Insanity Black Extreme

Only 7 gears (Shimano) but does have front suspension and hydraulic brakes. Solid rims won't help with the weight and it does not say what the frame is made of.

But at £299.95 a cheap entry level bike.



So there you have it - Five sub £500.00 fat bikes for sale on Amazon.

Ride safe..
