Any recommendations for a beach bike that won't disintegrate when used on or around the beach?   


Assumption is that a fat bike would be best on the sand, btw.

it will take years of rust to disable a beach bike. Ours lasted a decade when we thought it was on its last leg. Go cheap cruiser and spray with wd-40 each time you leave. Rust will show your beach cred

Fat bike on 5psi if your riding on the beach. Spray it down afterward and don’t have it outside. Put it in a closet and it will last as long as you
Need it. Some principle for beach cruisers just spray it down and keep in a closet and you’ll have minimal rust over the years. Any brand it’s the same really for longevity.
