> In the fat bike world, the 6-of-9 truncated cassette on a SS cassette hub 
allows the chain to clear a fatter-than-spec tire/rim combination. Fat 
bikes require a bit of a steep learning curve. If you're of a "roadie" 
mindset, the tire pressures, the bottom bracket widths, the frame offsets, 
and the gearing, can throw you for a loop. On my Moonlander, I have a 22/36 
crank with a 12-36 10s cassette. If I wanted to run something approaching 
Moonlander tires/rims on a Pugsley, I'd likely have to go to a single ring 
crank and an outward-spaced truncated cassette.
 
Jim - thanks for this.  Jeff Jones is clearly a fat bike denzien.  But the 
short cassette, I hope anyway, has applications even for those of us who 
have not quite yet made our way to the fat bike world.
