The Farley EX doesn't need your snow or your sand- but it'll handle it just fine - while being a dirt and rock shredder with little compromise...

The most mountain bike feeling fat bike yet. Buy if you want one bike for all seasons, or an extremely stable trail bike, and aren't concerned about pure dry trail performance
Impressive rear suspension, has a very mountain bike feeling, wheelies and manuals with ease
Bluto fork overworked, small tire knobs, busted rear rim
