Chic-Chocs 3
Who said a fatbike can't be as fun to ride as a mountain bike? The Chic-Chocs 3 is part of our new generation of fatbikes, offering an exceptional trail experience. Agile and responsive on the climb, stable and fast on the descent, it's designed to eat up the miles on your favorite singletrack or explore new areas on an overnight stay in a refuge.
Its modern geometry, corrected for the addition of suspension, offers even more confidence on the trails. Combining a narrow crankset axle and lightweight carbon-reinforced construction, the Chic-Chocs pedals efficiently in a variety of contexts.
Want to go further than usual? Storage space in the downtube and 18 mounting points offer multiple options for adding equipment to your bike.
* The frameset comes with wheel axles, headset, seatpost collar, frame protectors and UDH hanger.

Product information
We're proud to offer products for which every detail has been thought through and validated.
We offer a warranty that covers the owner of a Panorama bike for life. First of all, should a manufacturing issue arise, this defect will typically surface quickly in the life of the bike. That's why we offer a full 5-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Then, if an accident, fall or impact causes damage to the frame, you'll be covered by our lifetime crash replacement policy. Simply return the frame to us, and we'll assess whether repair is possible or replacement is necessary, at the lowest possible cost.
Return the bike after 10 days of testing if anything is not up to your expectations. Your satisfaction (and especially your fun outdoor) is at the top of our priorities. See the Terms of Sale for more information.

The story behind
Our Snowy Winters
A log cabin, winding trails through a forest of spruces: this is the typical landscape of our cold winters here in Quebec, where Panorama was born. It’s this unique atmosphere, the Chic-Chocs’ favorite terrain, that Denis Carrier from Studio Folk tried to capture with these beautiful illustrations.
To preserve our snowy winters, Panorama Cycles is committed to making the best possible choices in its daily operations. To find out more, click here:
