So the rear wheel on my ratbike exploded and given that a new one was gonna be at least 50 quid i decided it would be much more sensible to scratch the Roadrat itch that had been building for a while.
Really don’t get why they dropped black, Cy himself said on here at one point that it is commercial suicide not to offer it. I would have bought one new, even gritstone would’ve been fine… But anyway big thanks to Cripsin from here for sorting me out with a nice long version mk2 with full bonty kit for a very reasonable price!
Parts bin raided and vouchers spent, I’ve built it up to a spec im very happy with 🙂
