izzy, weight depends on build. from what i know, stock specialized fat boy is 30 pounds, people were able to reduce to 28 switching some components. this is for aluminum frame and wheels bike. so i believe with carbon you can go further below 28 lbs. which is nice. tires will matter a lot in terms of weight savings. if you going to go full fat tires 4.7" (surly bud/lou) expect havier bike. fat tires are not ported from skinnier tires, they are specifically designed as fat tires. more and more brands releasing their fat tires.

other big thing with fat carbon rims is tubeless compatibility, that needs to be tested, rather than just stating they are tubeless compatible.

Peter, please do test these rims before you actually make them available for purchase. dont use us as guinea pigs like other 2 companies that have already their fat rims out.

any ideas on max tire clearances front/rear? also, is there a clearance for bluto fork at bottomtube/headtube? looks like the fork shown on cad image shows suspension fork.

i am curious  to hear from Peter as all 190mm frames currently are traditional quick release, not thru axle.

The IP-018 in 18'' and IP-010 in 17'' will be available in 35 days, and the rear spacing for IP-018 is 197x12 and for IP-010 is 190x12.

ok, so this is what i was told. i am interested in 010 frame. need 18 or 19 though. what is puzzling to me is 190x12 rear spacing. this is not standard. i was told these frames dont come with rear axles and 190x12 axles are not available to purchase anywhere, i believe they dont even exist.

these images look exactly like frames offered by speeder cycling. i was trying to get more info and images as the rear spacing seems odd on curved frame. they keep telling me it is 12mm x 190mm through axle. does that even exist? the specs are very minimal on the site, yet they expect you to buy it. they would not email me detailed images of rear dropouts either.

Peter, since you are selling the frames, will you be able to offer more info? xmiplay website has no sign of any fat bike products for sale.
