Rat Bike Commuter Build - Retro GT 26"

Rebuilt this rad old 1993 GT Ricochet into my new ratty commuter. With a front rack, rigid fork, simple 1x7, bmx bars and the rusty/ratty frame that actually cleaned up surprisingly well! Super happy with how it all turned out, especially the front rack, rides super nice too :) Let me know what you guys think!
