Cyclocross: Cotic Roadrat, anyone used one in a race?

petejuk

I'm looking to sell 2 bikes I have in the shed as I'm out of space and need a kind of do everything bike. I am planning on getting rid of a fixed wheel bike and a cyclocross/ touring bike to replace with one. I'm looking at racing a season of cyclocross and am interested in the Roadrat as it appears to meet the need for both making up as a fixed or as a geared cyclocross bike.

I'm interested to find out if anyone has raced a Roadrat on a cyclocross course and what they thought of it.

I've never ridden one but if you're planning to race it fixed or singlespeed that's excellent to hear

It's chromoly steel so it will be quite heavy, and the low slung, sloping top tube might make shouldering the bike a bit awkward.
