I'm thinking of reworking this ol' rat. I'd like to turn it into an e-rat.

That's a sweet Flying Burrito, Brother.

It's so pretty as is. I almost hate to see you change it.

Mmmmm . . . . a burrito. My appetite has been whetted.

Those gussets are inspirational! Looking forward to the finished bike.

Now this, dear ratter reader, is where things went kerflooey on me. I got a call from a fella who needed an ebike NOW, and I did my best to accommodate him. I quickly added the controller, handlebars, stem, levers, grips, etc., wired it all up, took a quick pic for his approval, AND THAT'S ALL...
