Everyone interested tried it for them selves and realised it wasn't some magic bullet.

Killed it so dead that Salsa, Surly, 9Zero7 and all the other originals are still at it. Loads of other mainstream brands have come and gone as well. I recall John had an On One Fatty.
I had an inbred back in the day. It was all I could afford at the time and it was a bike I enjoyed a lot.
I've also had a road bike from them quite a while ago, the quality wasn't great. Nothing terrible but nothing quite right.
Only other thing I've bought recently are some bib longs. Again quality isn't great and I don't think they'll last long.
For me that lack of quality means there's always the feeling that thier kit will give up on me so I'll not be buying anything else from them.

Giant has jumped on the bandwagon too.
Specialised makes a s-works Fatboy, Trek has a full blown set of options to choose from.
Not that many have actually gone, much more have come. Best of all, the fatbikes have matured into good bikes. If anything, I think On-One has helped here.
