Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

Any photos of the front brake + rack setup?

I'd slam the stem and mount drop bars

TT dent has resigned this to IDGAF status and is subsequently ratting up.

that is quite some dent mate

Yep, was my fat ass ft. a D-Lock slamming down on it.

thought it might be one of them.

Saddle / bars..

Saddle has admittedly slipped slightly, but is exacerbated by slopey TT.
Do you mean stem? Bars are flat straight .

it looks cleaner than i remember it ever being?

Also the paint hides a lot from a distance, it's pretty manky close-up.

I've just finished putting my new beater together. My objective was to build something cool that i'm happy to leave locked up at the station everyday. I picked up the original full bike for £100 on Gumtree. It's a Regina Sport frame and came with mainly french parts and some campy hubs on tubulars. Anyway i've made a few adjustments and swapped out a few bits and with the introduction of a Wald 137 i think it's done. Unfortunately my brief is redundant now because even though it's cheap I will be gutted if it gets nicked!

Sorry for the previous posts, it said it wouldn't let me upload and did it anyway

Edit: Damn, @B0N0R beat my by a millisecond.

Looks a fair bit rattier in real life. Trying to decide whether to go with a rack for full beater action or some drops. Perhaps both.

Old Is Gold Gold Is Old!

Thanks to you both. I am technologically challenged

Sorry for phone pic.
