Viral Bikes
Viral Bikes builds fat bikes and trail mountain bikes aimed at riders who want one bike that handles a wide range of terrain, from packed snow to loose sand to everyday singletrack. What is Viral Bikes known for? Viral built its reputation on the Skooma platform, a fat bike frame designed to run multiple wheel and tire configurations, giving riders the flexibility to swap between fat-tire and plus-size setups on the same frame depending on conditions. Can one Viral frame handle multiple tire setups? Yes, several Viral frames are designed with dropout systems and clearance that accommodate both true fat tires and narrower plus-size tires, so riders can adjust their setup by season or terrain without buying a second bike.
