Saltyman, how do I phrase this delicately 
from the first few pictures of you riding your clearly a larger fellow to a point dare I ask is the 20 big enough and how did you come to the decision the 20 was best fit for you?
I would worry the extra height of the tyres would throw conventional sizing out of the window.

You do sit higher up, same as a 29er, despite the 26" rims the tires are that high you are soon at the same level as hybrids and 29ers....
My first fatbike was a 19" size L mukluk, was perfect, so wanted a 18" pugsley to be around same size but was advised to go for the 20" as surlys are strange to size.
Mines a 20" but that's to the top of the little triangle on the top tube, BB to centre of top tube is 18"....I had to get in touch with shop when my pugsley came, as I thought they'd send me a 18" but box and shop said, 20"
It's perfect

i rested it for a week, using my hybrid bike for a few days to justify having it still.
took the moonlander out to newcastle quayside market on sunday, taking in a tarmac route of 17 miles
must say my pugsley creates attention but nothing like what i had on sunday, i was stopped straight away for photos, people groping the tires, talking fat bikes with yound and old, really bizzare!
its an attention whore this bike
