A network of snow bikers could be formed.With small donations for the evolution of the sport of snow biking.The $$ could go towards improving snow bike tires , frame and fork designs.The most logical place to spend $$ is the mold of a large 29er tire.Any one interested in starting up in the savings plan of a tire mold account please contact me at flatpedalsrule@yahoo.com .I also invite readers to visit my website at highintensitybike.com Corporate dollars are also invited.Thankyou.-Tom Bourassa

A 622×76 Endomorph would be off the cool scale yes. Butwill not happen, as it’s not Surly’s own idea.
Who got money for a tire mold and pre-paying the first couple hundred tires?

Nice. Now all we need is a 622 Endomorph and a monster frame to fit it.

As I remember the USA press made an annual hoohah of the whole thing till Andy Heading from the UK won it first go. They promptly shut up.

I remember in the early 90′s when guys racing the Iditarod on bikes would take regular mountain rims and tack-weld them side by side to get a wider rim/tire interface. Then Snowcat came along and ruined the whole ghetto-fab construction that made the race so dangerous. Hooray for progress
