I did not know what it was at first

[NormanD]

I was passed by one of These

this morning, I've been checking online for ages to find out what type of bike it was ... I must say, the guy could keep a good pace on it too

 

[Mr Phoebus]

It's a Pugsley. A beach bike. (or snow)

 

[MontyVeda]

nice wheels!

 

[NormanD]

It's the first time I've seen one, it was the size of the tyres that impressed me, doubt they'll last long cycling alone the Tyne cycle way

 

[Moodyman]

Schwalbe Big Apples are similar size and according to reviews roll just as well as narrower tyres. Need big clearances to run those tyres though

 

[jonnysnorocket]

wouldn't fancy pumping them up !

I'm liking the look of those Big Apples

Gonna get some big fat tyres to use on my dop-barred singlespeed 'fits fatties fine' Surly Steamroller when I take it on off road jaunts ...it'll look and ride like a beast!

You could cycle across the Tyne on that.
