Perhaps I will call it Rat Raj?

I just scored this outta the trash at my local bike recyclers. I'm pretty sure they didn't know what to make of it. It has a dent in the left hand chain stay, but seems fully solid.

Gotta love a free Indian Raleigh knock-off! It is a Road Master Industries bike. Made in a smallish town in Punjab, home of many bike factories. Not amazing build quality, but it is really light.

I am headed in the Pashley Guvnor direction, or somewhere similar. I have already found a replacement rod brake system for the front end. I think I'll ditch the fenders, but the full chain guard will stay. I am going 29" coaster for wheels, assuming they will fit. Otherwise 28" rims laced to a coaster.

Got chain guard?

The other Road Master

Second head badge on rear fender... umm... tail badge?

Quickie mock up with a pair of 27" wheels. Where the heck did I find a 27" 3 speed coaster set?

I've also got one kinda like this one, mines a Raleigh but it's got rod brakes and a weird Cuff Lock on it but has a neat seat like that one too.

That thing is totally cool...it looks like it should have full skirt guards...
It would look like a tank
