So I recently spent some time on a beach in a certain tropical country and now I'm thinking that renting fatbikes there would be awesome.
What are the collective's recommendations for a spec list for a dedicated beach fat bike rental fleet? (Yes, I've read coastkid's post)
I'd start very small (6-12 bikes) and would want something very resistant to salt, sand, and rental type ab/use. Steel, alum, or ti frame? IGH or geared? Belt drive? 135mm or 190mm? 3 speed w/thumbies? Best sealed BB, headset, hubs? I'd want the bikes to last at least a season (3 months) and preferably 2 or 3 before needing major overhauls.
what say you? Gracias!!
