I have several bikes including a fattie; they're definitely slower, speed isn't their purpose. For me it's the increased rolling resistance on paved roads that adds to its utility, giving me a better workout on days I don't have time for a long ride. For me it's a novelty that has the utility of a jeep. They're just a blast to ride.
