Chinese Carbon MTB > Fat Bikes
Couldn't help myself
gocyco:
Had to scratch the itch!
New carbon Fatty build even though I own a 2014 Mukluk.
Most parts ordered. Only rec'd the XTR shifter and the Cinch Crank so far.
Here's the plan -
Frame: carbon LTK010
Fork: rigid carbon FK008
(nd carbon shox FK028)
Crank: Race face Cinch
Chainring: Race Face 28T
Cassette: XT 11-36 w/ethirteen 42T
Shifter: XTR
Derailleur: XT
Chain: Shimano
Seatpost: Nextie carbon 400mm 20mm setback
Rims: nextie carbon 65mm
Brakes: Juicy (old ones I have)
Rear Hub: Hope Fatsno 177x12
Rear Tire: Nate 120 tpi
Front Tire: Nate 120 tpi
Handlebars Nextie carbon 700mm
Pedals: Flats and XTR
Front Hub: Hope Fatsno 135x15
Headset: neco tapered
Stem: ? (I have a few)
BB: Race Face 100mm
Grips: Ritchey

Then sell the Mukluk I guess (?)
Carbon_Dude:
Look forward to seeing pictures when it's done.
Rigid_Bloke:
I hear you. I'm more and more tempted to build a chiner fat bike all the time. Problem is, I've never ridden one and am wanting one bc they look sooo ridiculously cool ;D
Since you already have the Mukluk I say definitely sell it... You obviously like the fat bike platform and the carbon chiner will be a huge upgrade for you, especially if you get some nice wheels to go along with it - and it looks like you are.

Any update on this? I was looking at the IP-057 but thanks to sketchy availability, I decided to switch gears and ordered up a Motobecane Boris with the Bluto shock. Waiting for that to arrive now - but was thinking that if I like it, a Chiner fatbike frame might work out really well. Curious to hear if your build happened and how it went.
gocyco:
My apologizes. I totally forgot I posted here. Too much time spent skiing.
I came back to this site because I'm thinking about what to replace my cracked 29er frame
Anyway. Bike came out pretty sweet.
Can't seem to get these photos to load!
How about this-
