>>1177041Fat tires are comfy. Slick fat tires are ultra comfy. This is a chill bike, you can ride no hands over stuff that roadies have to white knuckle death grip. You don't run 4.5'' slick tires if you want to decrease rolling resistance... Every single bike deserves a dropper even if you just use to lower the seat to mount the bike. I can tell you never ride on the pavement aggressively.
