Carver Bikes is making snow/sand bikes>>>>

[RPG]

Check it out. Not mine, but want one bad. For anyone that doesn't know, Carver Bikes is based out of Bath Maine, and specialize in bigger tire frames 650B, 9'r, 96'r, and snow bikes. Made out of Titanium and uses a 165mm Hadley hub

Thanks for the info RPG. Can't wait to see the specs.The more the merrier! seem's like new options are comin' out of the woodwork lately.

same source as the old speedway Fatback as far as I know

Huh....cool. So I am guessing the 1100.00 buck titanium price, or are these more than the Ti 96ers are?

Would be great to see Carver do an aluminum model too.

Pretty close.....Greg and Pete were the main impetus behind the Fatback Snowbike, and are welcome to sell them wherever they like. No problem here. We have them built for Speedway, but do not advertise them, and don't sell to customers in Alaska....with all of the Ti 96ers, 29ers and KillerBees we're doing, Greg and Pete could probably devote more time to a serious SnowBike customer, and their winter riding expertise certainly surpasses anyone I've ever known...except maybe that fat guy in a red suit WAY up north.

Best,

I raced that bike in the pic in the VT winter challenge. Man, it is fun.

Cool bike. Greg Matyas of Speedway Cycles in Anchorage AK and myself designed this and went through Davis Carver for production. It’s a little disappointing to see this picture of our bike being sold as a Carver, but I guess that’s how it goes in this business. I will say that the $1000 price tag is not accurate.

It isn't on the website, so maybe this is a one off or custom.

Cool bike, but I'm more interested in the setup of your mobile bike repair trailer. How's business?

[big and tall]

Thanks bme107, I cover the entire Capital District(Albany NY) and parts of MA,NJ,PA and Richmond VA. with my Mobile Shop. For the last 16 years I"ve been doing bicycle repairs right at customers homes and business locations. I carry virtually every part needed for reparing everything from $79.00 department store bikes to $5,000.00 IBD wonder bikes. The concept (all puns intended...Concept Bikes!) has taken off so well that I"m thinking of setting up a well suported Franchise program. I really believe that my business was destined to prosper...no one else does what I do...pretty good Idea that Our Lord Jesus gave me huh?...big and tall
