Nothing matches and everythings rusty.

Took the '53 SK by Monark out to test the forebrake. It works great! And ran into my riding buddy Chad with his rat project. It was breezy and cool, maybe 40 but it's the PNW after all.

1950 Roadmaster rat on the Riverwalk.
It was really quiet out, no tourists and very few locals either. Maybe it was the snow and hail and rain??

Not sure if it's a real ride. This one is done for now. It passed the ride around the neighborhood test.
Had to paint etc the fenders and chain guard. A lot of you guys have rusty mismatched bikes and they usually look great. For some reason mine just didn't look cool. My son suggested yellow with the stripes. "You can just do them over it's not like doing the whole thing if you don't like the yellow.
Well, what do you think?

Looks like a real Ratbike to me. I espescially dig the skinny front tire. Is it 27" ?

Yeah, it's a 27" but I can't claim the idea. A friend of mine gave it to me as a set.
It's big! It's the longest bike I have. It's pretty heavy, but with the Shimano 3cc, it really gets up!
Thanks, the yellow is growing on me a little. Anything is an improvement from how it looked. At least it looks like a real something now.
