“Gutter Bikes”
Here is a thought….introduce a new word into the biker vocabulary that gets away from the over used term “rat bike”. The term “Gutter Bike” tips it’s hat to those bikes our forefathers (grandparents or parents, etc) rode that were actually daily rides, that they had personally modified. We thing there are plenty of bikes that represent this style but get lumped into “Rat Bikes” simply because they don’t fit a certain look or style. Gutter Bikes ain’t pretty, they use common everyday parts (and even uncommon parts), show their blemishes and definitely don’t have billet. So, how’d this all come about. Too many late nights crammed back to back where sleep depravation kicks in and your brain goes wild on you…regardless of what your body is saying.
