Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

Pub bike? I do a hell of a lot more on it than ride to the pub and back, that's good kit on that frame, and although the frame is covered by a rather horrible layer of hammerite, it's an old 1970s track frame, builder unknown. That paint is coming off soon, anxious to see what is underneath, perhaps a clue to who built the thing. It's got some lovely lugwork on it

Oh I completely agree with you, I was just retorting to Sergioflorez's comment about the last three (yours too) not being rat. I couldn't really classify it better than it being a daily used companion. Too nice to be a rat to me. Also no franken.
