The geometry on the Minnesota 2.0 has a shorter cockpit than the Minnesota 1.0 giving it a more trail and free ride feel. NOT INCLUDED IN THIS LISTING) We cut through the BS and created a ready to ride 29er slick wheel set(w/rotors and cassette mounted) The additional wheel set options(Pat.Pending) allow switching from a"fat setup" to an even lighter, even faster"29 Fattie Slims™ wheel set" with no tools or mechanical skills. We did that too with the Framed Fattie Slims™ 29er wheel set. Check the specs and compare to the competition! Second, we wanted to make a fatty that was as multi-purpose as possible. We found these tires to have the perfect tread pattern to be a true 365 tire. For 2015, we also upgraded the tires to the Framed Minnesota 4x26" tires with lightweight tubes because when it comes to rolling weight, every ounce counts. It comes stock with Alloy Sealed Platform Pedals w/Removable pins and a KMC x9 chain. The Minnesota 2.0 pays attention to the little things.
We did that! Not only did we do that, we did it while adding extras. First, we wanted to make a nicely spec'd fatty for around $900. more Sand, dirt and even using them for commutes we realized they're way too fun and way too versatile for their current'quiver paradigm' By that we mean spending $2k on a quiver bike. At Framed Bikes we like to approach cycling from a problem to solution angle.
