I was just thinking about this ^^^^^^^. Maybe they'd need to have two pairs of the parallel tubes, one pair as it is now, then another, wider-spaced set few inches above them. A "regular" bike would just drop through the upper set and fall into the lower set. A fatty would sit between the upper pair, and the tires would sit on top of the lower pair. Somebody will come up with something, I'm sure. Although it seems like around here, the fatbike thing is starting to play itself out; perhaps it's become too "last year", overshadowed by the e-bike craze. They've already had to start putting stickers on the front of the buses here, indicating the racks do not accomodate the weight of an e-bike.
