The world's lightest fat bike
Featherweight was born as a Fat Bike brand and let's face it: Fat bikes have been around for years and for the most part they really haven't changed that much. Okay, so they've gone from 4" to 5" wide tires, they've evolved from 26" to 27.5" and back.
They've even dropped in weight from the high 30s to the high 20 pound range. And maybe they're a little better looking.
Sure, they're a lot of fun but they weigh too much to be considered a serious bicycle.
Headtube Angles reaching 68 degrees
The objective is to meet no match for the capabilities of our bikes. We have customers flowing over snow, sand, rock, and so much more.
Alloy or Carbon Wheels
We exclusively use HED Cycling Fat Wheels. They are the lightest premier fat bike wheel with 85mm of width and the ability to hold up to a 5in tire.
Stiff Responsive Construction
Our frames are made to be used and made to be ridden hard! We offer a 2 year warranty and after 4 years of production, not a single frame has required warranty.
Responsiveness
Strong feedback we often get is about the amount of immediate power transfer to the ground. Our stiff responsive frames are second to none.
Flow
Whether on sand, trail, or pavement, your flow isn’t stopped by rolling resistance. We run Jumbo Jim fat tires which have one of the lowest rolling resistances in the industry. It won’t feel like you’re on a 4”+ tire. Studded tires available upon request.
Climb & Descend
For those riding in elevation, don’t worry. You’ll be able to climb with the best and get down ahead of the rest. Our steep headtube angle makes for plenty of confidence.
We designed and manufactured a strong, lightweight, and high performance fat bike that has changed the game. In 2021, we took this technology to develop Road, Gravel, and Triathlon frames.
Introducing the Featherweight fat bike — the world’s lightest* production fat bike weighing an amazing 17.5 lbs.
Not only is it ultra-light, but it is amazingly responsive. Instead of the standard T700 carbon used in today’s higher-end bike frames, we use T800 carbon in critical high-stress areas like the fork, the head tube, and the bottom bracket, making our frames stiffer and stronger than many of the best fat bikes in production today.
And we spec all of our bikes with industry leading SRAM Eagle drivetrains, and HED wheels unless otherwise specified. But the Featherweight riding experience is more than simply the sum of its parts. It’s magic. It’s fat bike perfection.
*Weight certified medium frame, single speed model. Models and sizes vary in weight.
