I've got one of the older Roadrat frames. They've made a few tweaks since I got mine - lower BB, longer headtube, disc mounts moved to the chainstays, etc. - but yes, I really like it. You can fit it with pretty much any tyres you'd want to with the clearance (I'm running 700x42s atm with the wheel slid all the way in the dropout, still room for larger). It handles okay loaded up, tho it makes no claim to be a tourer. Plenty of stepover clearance if you want to take in some rough stuff. Does what it sez on the tin - great all-rounder.
