Awesome! +1

Looks comfy!

its what i'm aiming for with my new bike

good thing to aim for

^^ wanna buy my rack?

i did think about it, but it looks a little crude for what i'm after sorry.

Snob

I think thats the VO rack on the 'dale but i don't want to drop £140

any idea of what rack that is

its a Velo Orange one, they're about £140

oh great!

I hope you're ready for "what rack is that spotter" when you finish your new build.

I did think about getting the workshop guys to knock me one up but then the prospect of a thousand and one questions about where i got it and if i could get more made made my head hurt

reades wifes rat. actually more rattish irl then the pic

V.Nice.

^and here's me, oh fuck this lark I am going to keep the nago as a 10 cos its puppy killing, and wont look right as a ss. ffs fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

So, this "puppy killing", is this for pleasure, or because the voices tell you to...?

nagos a track frame, so converting a road frame may well be puppy killing? (apolz if misreading)

Im upset that a 70s/80s looking track frame that has an adjustable stem on it gets love as a rat, when mine gets abuse...

bothery.

Me too...it would look much better on my bike. Saddens me :'(

Junkers rat-wife is amazing however, not trying to lessen his love at all.

Possibly an older iteration, but the loops are different and the VO one doesn't currently have those extra horizontal reinforcements.

^ saddle shape&angle look positively dangerous
