Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

Yeach, that's about right.

I used it for polo but it was too long for me. It's a $480 frameset but I'm having trouble shifting it built up for £250. The FGFS fad is truly over.

It actually rides really nicely apart from being heavy.

Also looking for that sticker.

If you change the headset it's a very nice looking dale.

FGFS is still going strong man!

Did the bike kill it's rider?

Attempted a fade job today on the beater/pub bike

Think I'll add some white to the rear dropout area then lacquer it.

I like the headset, it reminds me of one of my favourite rats.

Looks good especially if you go for the white in the dropouts.

Rattle can job?

@HHC yep, literally a 5 minute respray with £2 cans.

Turned out ok but I defo need to throw some ore white on the rear

postre ?

y u verlans.....french is confusing enough!

Wow. That Gios may just be my new favourite rat bike!

Nothing has changed but this bike continues to make me happy.

Absolutely love that gion

On the favourite rat bikes subject, I still think OK123's Dave Russel is my favourite.

Good choice

awesome bike, but not ratty enough for a winner IMO... rims, levers, stem, bartape, etc all minty fresh

Gion on the other hand is (IMO again) matching rims and a layback post from being (aesthetically) one of my faves

Any more pics of this one?

The one with the gold headset and spokes taped to the top tube

Nope but it did crack.

<3 sven
It's now got threadless carbon forks and mismatched rims though, will post pics at some point
@B0N0R's panasonic or his seta are my favourites

What's with the spokes on the tt?

Don't tell me Incase a spoke break plz
