Freakin' MTBs are. People are having to buy whole new rack systems to accommodate the giant wheels and ridiculously wide handlebars. They pretty much won't fit inside a hatchback car or smaller wagon anymore.

I see those things all over. I had a fat bike years ago. The best bike I ever sold. Hated it.

"Hummer bikes"? Are those confined to the Rossebuurt or are they freely circulating around the city?

Bit the wide bars and big tires are oh so nice to roll the trails. Wouldn't have it any other way, totally worth the hassle
