I got 6 - but it was a crap quiz, too many questions relating to dates.

Agree.  Nothing to do with the fact I got a dreadful score.

Try this one for something a bit more bike focussed.  6/10 here but the Klein/Maverick question was a bit unfair.

5, I also missed a couple of years by 1. Got the Z1 travel and the Kirk material right though.

I'm not old enough to have been riding properly in the late 80s, only really started knowing the kit from the mid - late 90s through my teens.

5 for me - some really odd questions.

Classic Hayes brakes!? Magura hydraulic rim brakes were classics, not Hayes discs.
