In my opinion some of the best bike check videos. Nice to get your opinion on some of the parts rather than spouting what you have. Cheers Pat. Much love from U.K!
Dude I don't know if you noticed, but your bike has 55mm BB drop and 440mm long chainstays, weighs about ~14.5kg and it's a fatbike. Yet you easily bunnyhop handlebar height and front wheel tap up even higher.. My only question is: What the hell? Big fan of yours, keep it up! Cheers
Thanks Pat for the video; what's the fork travel you have chosen? ...I'm trying to understand what's the best Mastodon fork travel for my Specialized Fatboy...
Just curious how tall you are with running the 18 inch frame? I’ve been looking into getting a skookum once it’s possible to get a bike again. Also, you are an awesome rider!
@@PatSmage stoked about it! It’s on back order though. Converted to tubeless also, should be a big difference. Also hoping it bypasses the weight penalty coming from a carbon fork.
All in all what's it like riding tyres that big?? A genuine question.. The biggest I've rode are oddesey fire hawks for bmx and they were 20/2.4 slick and they were spongey verry spongey like Max 30/35psi
If they are good enough for him they are more than good enough for the rest of us! He does some wild stuff that he needs trust in his brakes for that’s for sure. 👌

Good to hear! Of course I missed a few thing I wanted to say, but it still gives a good idea of why I like the parts I run.
Dude this style of video is dope! You are the reason I went out and got a fatbike. And I love it!
That is awesome to hear! Tear it up👍
This looks like a lot of fun! Keep up the awesome videos!
Every time I watch Pat's bike vids I can't help but think sell the Beta evo and buy a fat bike, it looks great fun.
They are great fun, but I would recommend having a Trials bike and a fatbike if possible!
@@PatSmage traveling out to SoCal soon? Love to setup a skills session
Video title: How much pressure do I run?
Answer: I don't own a tire gauge.
Lol
Haha pure clickbait!
😂
what a Skookum...

Haha I have never been one to pick apart geo and weight too much, if it’s fun to ride I’m all about it. 👍
Hey Pat Smage! Thanks Pat Smage! Ride ride ride!
Ah yes, the warm up backflip.
It really gets the blood flowing quick!
Check out the catalyst pedal 👍 sweet little training area you got there.
Those look interesting, I would love to test them out.
Hi, Pat. To get a feel for your frame size preference, how tall are you?
I am close to 5"11 and it fits perfect... I believe Pat told me he was 6FT.
Yep I am 6’
Like like like. Like most of youre videos, but you trials fatbiking, still my favorites
Good to hear! That’s one of my favorites to do 👍

120mm for the Skookum, not sure what’s best on the fatboy.

6’. It’s on the small side but still works. I tried a 20” and while more comfortable I didn’t like how tall the seat tube was. Thanks!
Just ordered a mastadon ext!
Good choice!

@@Wheelsanstuff also have a Mastodon pro ext on order too 👌🏻

Who doesn't love a good bike check? Thanks!!
Is this Fatbike available in Philippines 🇵🇭
I really like this Fatbike
That I do not know but you can check out their website to find out www.fatbackbikes.com
" I feel like, Hey there is a Cat" lol
Probably one of the most relatable animals to a trials rider haha.
Haha yes cats and goats can pull off some awesome trials lines!
Way too advanced for me. 3 years under my belt but in upper 60’s, gotta keep it on the downlow.
Same brakes a Remy Metailler!
There must be something to them.
If they are good enough for him they are more than good enough for the rest of us! He does some wild stuff that he needs trust in his brakes for that’s for sure. 👌
I have asked so many times for the ''FAT-CHECK''! This one is for me LOL!!!
What kind of water bottle cage is that?
The any bottle cage by Bikase
You running tubeless summer and winter? Thank you
Tubeless in summer, have been using tubes in the winter lately since I blew a bead on a non tubeless ready tire I tried to make tubeless.
Great vids!👍🏻
Very nice...
Your fork is backwards
Are you sure? It feels quite good.
Pat Smage never thought of the
Sender Sean Manitou runs a reverse arch on their forks. Maybe everyone else is actually backwards haha
Pat Smage didn’t know that
