Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

Yeah I saw that bike in Oxford too, my girlfriend moved there in May.

If you see a young lady riding a pastel green SS Raleigh town bike and a git following her on a baremetal 3-speed, that's us.

I love the name of 'Le Business'

Gas Pipe tubing ?

Found at fixed gear gallery - I like this, even though it's a GT (ducks and protects eyes and temples).

Nice pump

just because its a shit bike doesnt mean it belongs in this thread

this thread is quickly getting worse...

I reckon that's a pretty cool beater, remember, rat bikes, beaters and frankenbikes.

Thread motto.

bring back bmxed, please!!!!

Hard to tell where the 'bike' finishes and that gate post starts. Yeah I'd like a go on that.

Repost? Its horrible...

I know this is a bit of a grey area with the rider on the bike but I can't find it on it's own.

I think the frankenbikes needs to be removed from the thread name it seems to do more harm than good.

This really isn't the thread for facile snobbery.

Why do people sticker their bikes? Looks shite when they do.

fuck yes.. where have you been sir?!?!?!?!

@bmxed

That Bianchi is just a nice normal bicycle covered in sticker really, can't really call it a rat, especially after what we've seen on here.

Please don't moan all over this thread when someone posts something.

Oh dear the sticker arguement has reared it's ugly head yet again.

@bmxed

I've been waiting for the next batch of beaters to mature. It's far more time consuming than buying expensive period correct components off ebay and hanging them off a suitable vintage steel frame.
