Overview
About this bike
Diamondback's El Oso fat bike really is as much fun to ride as it looks. Throw your leg over it and the first thing you will notice is the strong and lightweight aluminum frame made with hydroformed tubing, as well as a plush 100mm-travel Rockshox fork and hill-slaying Shimano 2×10-speed drivetrain. Designed to excel in sand and snow, the high volume/low pressure tires gain purchase on surfaces that have long been unrideable. But you don’t have to ride in sand or snow to experience the amazing traction of these tires—a spin on your favorite local trails will have you grinning ear to ear. El Oso does indeed excel on dunes and snow, but it’s not limited to them. It’s a capable trail bike as well! Wherever you choose to ride it, one thing’s for sure: you'll have the time of your life on the El Oso!
