Frequently Asked Questions

General

The W1 is a fat bike with the classic “motorcycle” appearance. The W1 has a duo seat so you can carry a friend on the back. Unlike the W1, the W3 is foldable, so you can easily take it with you on public transport or in the car. The W3 also has a luggage carrier, the W1 does not. The W3 is better suited for tall people (> 18.5m) or people with back problems, because the handlebars and saddle are adjustable and the W3 rides more smoothly over bumps due to the special suspension.

Technology & Maintenance

Tires and brake pads are easy to replace yourself.

Lubricate your chain regularly, and check every now and then whether all screws are properly tightened. Also regularly check your tire pressure - a tire that is too soft leads to more tire wear and affects top speed and usage. Your tire pressure should be around 3 bar/43 PSI.

You must inflate the tires of a fat bike to 3 bar or 43 PSI.
