Was in at Mountain Equipment Co-op yesterday and noticed they're finally carrying fat bikes.

The bikes are made by RSD, and look good. All three bikes have 4.8" tires, and disc brakes.
The C$1650 Sheriff I has cable-operated brakes, and lower-end tires.
The C$2000 Sheriff II has hydraulic brakes and better tires.
The C$2500 Sheriff III has hydraulic brakes, better tires, and front suspension (the first I've seen on a fat bike).
There are probably differences in the wheels & running gear as well.
I'm happy with my 4" Pugsley, but if I have to upgrade I'll have to give these a close look.
The RSDs sold by MEC all have aluminum frames, but RSD also sells titanium fat bikes!
