  • Walrus Ratfink - I bought a bike from a friend, he was leaving the country and it was a bit of a favour, and the bike was a little small. So, a transformation from a perfectly respectable commuter to a strange, fixed geared, disc-braked, wanna-be-tall-bike, rat-thing:

  • I don't, but will get one! It isn't quite right and too ponderous. I had a thing for big brown tyres (I think these are 38, but started with some silly, phenomenally heavy 45ish) which look right, but are so slow. I'll probably take it back to 28s and fettle down the mud-guards somewhat. ft it's going to be tall, upright and have a fairly short wheel-base, then it needs to be quick. Or... I swap the rear for a fat 650 to relax all the angles, put on swept bars, and turn it into a very strange cruiser of sorts.
