Last Herb. Herb in itself is a stupid name for a bike, never mind Last. Though in my case, it’s probably quite well named.

Rose need a thread all of their own. “The Duchess” “Crystal Stoke” “Dr Z” “Verdita Green” “Mr Ride” “Count Solo”- nb not a singlespeed.

Sadly they no longer do the Granite Chief. But what’s really odd is, beside all the gibberish names are things called “Carbon Pro” “Pro RS” and other such generic boringness.

la pierre=the peter rock

[frog pedant] If it was peter it would be ‘le’ not ‘la’.[/frog pedant] But it’s actually just the dude’s name: he’s probably well old and dead as the brand’s been around in one form or another for 50+ years iirc.

Anything by Cove! If you are over 14 they are just crap names I would rather an XTC or something non descript, I can’t even look at Cove bikes as the names are so ridiculously childish.

Damn beaten by fellow froggy julian. Plus it would be lePierre 😉

juan, je l’ai googlé, et son prénom était Gaston. Oldskoooooool! 😀

Why did they choose the name Froggy? I thought it only meant something else in the Yookay. Will we see an On-one Rosbif and a Rose ‘Jerry’ too?

Will we see an On-one Rosbif

Class. That’s propper funny. 😆

t, I can’t even look at Cove bikes as the names are so ridiculously childish.

but then again so is being a grown up and riding a bike in the mud.

I think they’re just fine. The cove names only seem to offend/upset those that are so far advanced into middle rage that they would never be target demographic for a hardcore bike like cove anyway so it’s a kind of marketing natural selection 😆

Twohats, you’re confused, that’s an AWESOME name for a bike. You win the internet.

Apologies if this has already been put up – I did look, some funny names alright.

KONA KIKAPU – who are they kidding? If you stick Deluxe or King beside it, just makes it worse.

Now, can you see inside the Kona dealer? Lines of Stinky Kikapu Deluxe?

Note: yes I do realise what it all means but it’s still funny.

Twohats, wrong thread! 🙂

Is it a GFORCE Haddock or a Haddock GFORCE – either way its awesome

Apollo Letdown.

That is amazing! I hope it’s replacement was just called the disappointment.

I think it was the “Well, it’s never happened to me before”

Twohats – Thanks! You win forever.

Not bikes but tyres. From my youth I remember:

Nobby Skinwall & Ritchey Megabite, not sure if the 1st was a GT’s own brand tyre?

Ellsworth names are awful – Truth, Epiphany, Dare, Evolve.
Sound like Christian adult education courses.

Saracen Sausage?? sorry savage….look at the graphics..all i can is sausage…….sorry that sounds sooo wrong

+1 for the Mmmbop,non biking friends are usualy worried when they see that on my bike.

Is it a GFORCE Haddock or a Haddock GFORCE – either way its awesome

^ Truth. Although I like the Rock Lobster name too.

Anything by Cove makes me cringe, can’t really think of many other names that make me think, “Why would you do that?”

Sintessi Bazooka

I don’t care what you say, my mate rides a zesty and we always refer to it as ‘the peter’. although he might prefer ‘the rock’ in a WWF (wrestling) styleee!

The haddock is truley awesome though.

Cove + 1.

How can anyone forget the Rose Beefcake?

Great looking bike but I just couldn’t see me riding a beefcake somehow.
