Momentum Rocker $590 in 2016

Who said fat bikes are just for winter? The huge tires add comfort to rocky trails, and provide excellent stability and traction in foul conditions. Now Momentum, a brand of city bikes from Giant Bicycles, has found a new use: cruising over curbs and plowing over potholes on your daily commute.

The 4-inch-wide tires will roll over almost anything in their way (illegally parked cabbies excluded) and the 1x drivetrain with a single front chainring is easy to maintain. The frame even has a clever integrated cup holder for those days you need a caffeine pick-me-up on your way to work.

Via Bicycling; more in cycling and fatbike.
