Another victim of some would say, marketing hype. We can't all be wrong.

Re: Project - Ratatouille .....

Ah.. saltwater. That will do it no end of good!

So do I,

Only the frame may I add, I did not bog ride it from the shoreline

The big wheels or the oxidisation ??

The big wheels. There was a thread a couple of weeks back.......

Hang on...... viewtopic.php?f=41&t=305190

There you go. To sum up, it's all marketing hype and the placebo effect combined with wanting to find difference due to investing in a new product. Or not.

Re:

Another fantastic ferrous bike with ferris wheels either end. Wonder what it would be like to ride with matching rigid forks ?
Good stuff

Re:

double Im sure it would be good, I am a convert to this fad so much so that I will confess that I haven't ridden my modern 26er since July .... it clean and ready to go but this big rat gets chosen.

I did want to get another frame as i mentioned in the original post, but as this one rides so well I am now not bothered, it gets a lot of attention and admirers when out and about (unlike the rider)

Goodbye rat bike

He still has the 'proper' one you know Adrian. The one with 'obsolete' wheels

So, what's the plan Mr Monster?
