Looks like one of the bikes that was imported to Canada. Supposedly, it was an overseas made bike that was sent only to Canada to test the market for a less expensive Fat. We have one here (albeit much smaller)

It looks in evert aspect like a regular Yo, except for that it is very tall.

Probably made for some MBA star?

Crazy. Looks like it could be a circus bike. Can imagine someone riding it round whilst people jump through the main part of the frame. Possibly on fire.
