  • Frame Size Guide

    Please review the size chart below to determine the optimal frame size based on your height.

    Wyatt Bicycles Size Chart

    If you find yourself between sizes, we recommend the following:

    1. Size down for an active ride and size up for a stable ride.
    2. If you have longer legs and a shorter torso than the average person your height, we recommend that you size down. If you’re all torso and arms, we recommend that you size up.

    A dropper seatpost is a type of adjustable seatpost on a bike that lets riders raise or lower their saddle height on the fly, usually via a remote lever on the handlebar. This adjustability makes it easy to switch between different riding positions: a higher saddle for efficient pedaling on flat terrain or climbs and a lower saddle for better maneuverability and control on descents or technical sections.

Maverick is an American-made fat bike with modern trail geometry, designed to have fun on any terrain.

Your ticket to freedom

Maverick is not your traditional fat bike limited to snow riding. It blurs the lines between a fat bike and a hardtail mountain bike, offering a unique blend of versatility and performance. Its modern frame geometry and optional front suspension, paired with oversized tires, enables you to tackle a wide range of trails with confidence.

From finding your flow on the doubletrack, navigating sandy beaches, exploring state trails, or enjoying the solitude of snow-packed singletrack, the Maverick is your ticket to freedom. This bike is designed to break boundaries and take you further, making every ride an adventure.

Wyatt Maverick Fat Bike - Made in USA

The Foundation

The Maverick frame is made from premium US-sourced 6061-T6 aluminum and is built to take a beating. The front triangle uses oversized round tubing, while the rear triangle features custom extruded rectangular tubing welded to CNC’d yokes and sliding dropouts. This design minimizes frame flex, enhances torsional compliance, and maximizes power transfer, ensuring more energy is transferred from the tire to the ground.

Modern Features

The Maverick is one of the most capable and versatile fat bikes on the market. Whether you want to run a rigid fork or suspension fork to running 5.05″ tires with a narrow Q-factor crankset, the Maverick can adapt to your riding style.

Suspension Friendly

The Maverick frame is suspension friendly, meaning that whether you use a Wren Carbon Rigid fork or a Wren Inverted 110mm suspension fork, the geometry remains unaffected, ensuring a consistent ride feel.

Sliding Dropouts

Our sliding dropouts offer 20mm of fore and aft adjustment, allowing you to modify your chainstay length, fit different tire sizes, and even run your bike as a single speed. We use high-strength T45 bolts that resist stripping and keep your sliders securely in place.

Dropper Post Compatible

The Maverick is compatible with both internal and external dropper posts, giving you the option to keep it simple with a rigid post or enjoy the benefits of a dropper. A slot in the bottom of the seat tube accommodates an internally routed dropper, while additional mounts under the top tube allow for external routing.

Narrow Q-Factor

The Maverick features a 100mm threaded bottom bracket, 20mm narrower than most fat bikes with 197mm rear spacing. Our newly designed CNC yokes and curved chainstays allow compatibility with any fat bike crankset designed for 190/197mm rear spacing with a Q-factor of 205mm or greater. Please note, the stock RaceFace Ride crankset has a 230mm Q-factor.

Tire Clearance

The Maverick is designed to accommodate a 26″ x 4.8″ tire, which provides optimal handling on loose trails. However, it also supports other sizes: 26″ x 5.05″, 27.5″ x 4.5″, and 29″ x 3.0″. This flexibility is achieved through our precision-engineered CNC yokes and sliding dropouts, combined with curved rectangular chainstays and seat stays.

Made in the USA

We believe in American manufacturing. As an American bicycle brand, it is our duty to actually manufacture the frames that we design. This gives us complete control over the quality of our bikes and allows us to support the American economy, the American workforce, our environment, and our freedom. Every Wyatt frame is handcrafted from start to finish using 100% American-made aluminum at our headquarters in Bangor, WI.

Wyatt Made in USA Logo

Powder Coated Finish

Every Wyatt frame is powder coated in-house. Powder coating is an advanced finishing process that is extremely durable and more resistant to chipping, scratching, fading, and wearing when exposed to snow, rain, and the hot sun compared to liquid paint. If you decide to customize the color of your bike, you can choose from a selection of several different powder coat colors. If there isn’t a color shown on our bike builder, please contact us for custom options.

Tuned & Ready to Ride

Our goal is to make purchasing your bike online as simple and convenient as possible, with direct shipping to your door (local pickup available). No need to stress over assembly or tuning, or making a trip to a bike shop before you can ride. We fully build, tune, and test each bike before delivery. Once your bike arrives, it takes less than 30 minutes to unpack, install the front wheel and handlebars, and hit the trails.

Excellent Craftsmanship

Like several others, due to my height (6'6") found Wyatt since the XL Maverick had the geometry to fit. It does indeed me fit well and I've been beyond pleased that works even better than my S6 Stumpjumper EVO.

Wyatt was great in being flexible in adjusting some components that I wanted and building up an extra set of wheels with 27mm rims that I use to make the Maverick my gravel bike during summer.

It has a been a joy to ride, particularly on the trail in snow. Geometry is a perfect match for me and have been stoked to find how well it climbs. Been able to make it up sections of trail even in the snow that I struggle clearing during the summer.

It is beautifully made and makes me smile every time I ride it.

The big bike is amazing!

I never had a bike that really fit before. 6'5" with a 6'8' arm span, size 15 shoes, I always had to get a long high stem, clamp the seat too high then balance like a circus bear on a unicycle, trying to stay in the sweet spot. I went to pick up my bike, Wyatt raised the bars one spacer and it fit perfect (with just the stubby little stem like the cool guys have on their bikes). I did a custom order for an XL Maverick: Mastodon pro, PNW dropper, koyote bars, sq lab grips and a Koda saddle, 4.5 studded dillingers for the winter. I had some 29ers built in Wausau with some Wicked Will tires. I intended to use the 29ers mainly for gravel but the bike feels and grips better than my full suspension carbon fiber with a butcher on front. I'm pretty sure it is going to be my go to year round ride. It's my families 2nd Wyatt so I already knew about the "Maverick Magic". Somehow, it is heavier than the other bikes but feels lighter and goes faster! The bike is made right here in Wisconsin, you can meet Wyatt and get a quick tour of the shop if you want. If your tall you have to try one of these xl Mavericks to see what you missing, I doubt you can find anything that comes close. Even if your not tall you will be amazed at how this bike somehow rides like a full suspension bike feeling both responsive and stable. Thanks Wyatt!

Awesome looking bike

I bought it for my son who is in high school. This bike is tough, goes anywhere, and looks great doing it. High quality components. It is black with red letters. His buddies are envious. When I upgrade my own fatty someday, I will seriously consider the Maverick.

Don’t Think! Just do!

The maverick is a great choice if you’re looking for a fat bike with modern geo and that’s capable on the trails. I’ve ridden this bike on the beach and on the trails with steep, technical terrain. This thing moves! Power transfer is great and is pretty nimble for being a fat bike. As with any bike, tire choice and setup is crucial to riding g dynamics, but from a frame perspective, this thing is SOLID, stable, and super-fun!

Tall rider’s Maverick

As a 6’6” former mountain bike racing enthusiast, I came across Wyatt Bicycles to replace my full suspension bike. After a lot of internet scouting, I kept coming back to Wyatt. I know of no other bike company where you can call, or email your concerns and you speak to the owner/ manufacturer himself. That was the most impressive thing. As a tall rider I had many questions about frame sizing and overall fit,( also my first Fat bike), but Wyatt assured me that the Maverick would fit me. I had never purchased a bike without first trying it out, but after speaking to him personally , I decided to order one.
I’m glad I did!
What an impressive build, beefy, modern geometry, and just plain fun to ride.
The bike handles great on all surfaces, and is not sluggish as expected ( being a fat bike).
This bike suits me just fine, and I recommend checking out Wyatt Bicycles if your a tall rider, and looking for a modern Fat bike for your adventures!
Go have fun!!!
