Hey guys. I don't know if I mentioned this already here but I did want to show some more pictures of my Fat. I got it from a shop in New England and found out it was made for a lady named Heidi that was the founder of a large riders' organization there and also a former racer.

The bike is beautiful, to me, with details that never cease to amaze me. The GP Wilson dropouts, the noodle, the fork, the paint, the pump peg (never found a small enough campy headed pump). The bike is full campag which gives me the awesome stopping distance of 293 feet.

Probably one of the top 10 (5?) greatest Fat Chances of all time. Top of the line, unique, original.
