This is the 2nd testbike from 38 Frameworks, did some custom decals on it.. Rides really great so far on the dirt, really absorbs the bumps and vibrations nicely.. Cant wait to put some snow miles on it, wanna put on my 4.8s!!!!

What does it weigh, or more importantly, how much less than a normal aluminium fat bike? The lines are great, but I'm not convinced that a carbon frame will be a game changer.

Good eye. They work just as well in mtb situations, and are lighter. Smart spec! Until it gets ripped off by an arrant rock or stick that is...
Green Bay, WI, its 25lbs as it sits, mounted up 4.8 bud and lou tonight now 26lbs. yes a dura ace, i had it sitting here it works just fine as well as my x0 does. the bud and lou will fit on a clown shoe we did that as well tonight as a test. bike really looks alive with the 4.8s on it.....will post pics after tomorrows ride..
they are a Colorado based company, we ride for them and are setting up dealers here in WI and MI, also the difference between the 1st and 2nd is the length of headtube, it was increased to raise the front of the bike. the frame is not crazy light,but its light enough... it has been overbuilt with Enve tubing and wrapped to be built strong, it was 3.4 when we built the bike my guess is the production models will be around that or less for a L frame.
the only thing we need to do yet is mount my Lou on a clown shoe in rear to see how well it clears.. any order inquires can be made by looking at the 38frameworks website or hop on their facebook page.
their is plenty of more happenings coming from 38 in the future so keep your eyes open, they are gonna focus on all fatbike stuff and even custom parts for em, such as the XO crankset they had modified for the bike you see on the website! 38frameworks.com
