Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

use a topcross instead

Picked this 3 speed up a couple of weeks ago. Was planning to transfer wheels, bars and levers to a nicer frame, but enjoying it as it is atm. Took it to the pub and let mates have a knockaround on it without thinking twice.

^ Gillott belongs to my Dad, he uses it for <20m trips all year round...

My bad then. Thought the cracked foam grips and dull finish on the saddle hinted at lack of use but proven totally wrong!

^^ It's in my shed at the mo, the cracked grips are going to go and I'll give it a general clean-up and polish...

^^ Loving the homemade gussets on that frame
and Mike Burrows wheels are always fun

They are there because he cracked the frame where the seatstays connect! That´s how we solve problems here in Sweden.

That ^ looks great, and I need to move to Sweden...

+5 points for missmatch parts, +3 points for originality, +2 points for wear 'n' tear, -11 points for security!! :l bummer.

......-1 for saddle angle. ;)

Brakeless and no foot retention?

Coaster.

• brake.
  

Pretty sure that thing inside the rear triangle is a (crappy) lock. You see them a lot on Japanese town bikes.

i love this, tempted to put carbon forks on my brooklyn

Those bars are hurting my head. Where's the left side gone?

Previous page rat is in Amsterdam so no need for serious locking

I love this...
