Yes. You.
Up to now, I have been able to avoid fat tire choppers. I used to think they were ugly and unrideable.

The good Dr is full of surprises Matti

Imagine it with a full rear fender/Phantom chainguard and tank and a custom Manta Ray inspired banana seat...brakes are drum front and scooter band in rear on a Sturmey Archer wide 3 speed hub.
Just need to get a shop built so I have room to work in order to finish it. There’s a build thread on it somewhere on here, let me find it

Thanks Doc. Super cool concept, far beyond what "Schwinn" was able to accomplish. You need to update that thread

24 inch BMX with 26 inch front wheel and fork.

I got the front wheel for free and it was off of a cheap Walmart mongoose full suspension. I did find a rear wheel that would fit that was from a much nicer frame that was also free. I am considering putting a really nice, disc compatible front wheel on this frame and using a front disc brake.

My 346 Basman "Orange Mashine", 29" front and 24" rear wheels. Runs fast as hell!

26x1.5 front 24x2.5 rear. I’ve experimented with a ton of different sizes on this bike, but this is my favorite setup.
