Just to raise awareness really, let's see your hack/rat/shitter bikes for pub/town etc. Hopefully inspire/convince a few to think about not risking their expensive ride.
The cheapest/rattiest the better I guess!
Both sold now, but previous 'popping into town' bikes...

My old GT Timberline
That chrome BMX is nice. I had a Hoffman Flash that looked similar to that, slam bars, redneck stem etc.
'Town' is either 8 miles, 12 miles or 17 miles... all involving epic hills... I don't have a bike for this... i don't really do pubs or socialising either hahaha.
weeksy - fair enough 😀
If the pub bike wasn't hanging up in my parent's shed right now and I could get a photo of it, I sincerely believe I'd win this thread by some margin.
I've built many bikes over the years, but I've never been more proud of a job well done and a bike more fit-for-purpose than I was with the pub bike. Good god it's hideous.
Good god it's hideous.
Gotta see it now 😀
Mine is probably a bit too nice. Hammerite ftw.

Not strictly a pub bike but I think it fits the bill.
