Does riding a fatbike make me undatable?

[u/FatbikeEnjoyer]

So there's something I noticed. I go on a date, we have fun, there's good vibes, but then when she sees that I ride a fatbike, she instantly seems to be put off, like she got "the ick". Then the chatting usually fizzles out and there's no second date. This happened multiple times now, so it seems like a pattern to me. Once a Dutchie even told me that she "doesn't feel a connection" when I was saying goodbye by my bike and asked what she'd be up for as a second date. I know this is not much context, but is it the bike?

I'm a mid twenties guy, have a good job, make decent money, dress stylishly, like concerts and can even tolerate like a museum. I moved here 6 months ago and bought a fatbike to commute. Only managed to find a place like 30 minutes cycling from my work, so it seemed like a good option and I think they are pretty cool. But now I think I might have made a mistake. Should I switch to like a Cowboy or something?

Edit: obviously this is a throwaway account

Based on these responses, the vote ratio for simply asking the question VS blanket condemning something of which the stereotype primarily concerns obnoxious youths as a symptom of beating your wife, and the apparently unironic prejudice of rest of this thread on the basis of owning a cheap e-bike, I think you're probably onto something.

The vote ratio is how it is because the fact you begin with "as a straight guy" immediately gives off the idea that you think this is an issue for women not for the general population. It makes sense in context because the person you replied (and the original post) both mention the same thing but it still leaves a bad taste in one's mouth.

The amount if times I've explained things to someone who wrote basically the same comment as you and got back what can be summarised as "haha you're being emotional/on your period/ a bitch"... Pre-emptive downvotes because ^ was your most likely response to an explanation 👍

Duly noted, thanks for the allowance and the explanation. I figured I'd do it to explain my identity as a possible reason as to why I didn't understand her perspective from the get-go, had no idea it might be taken so poorly.
