Always wanted a Chas Roberts Dogs Bolx, but even I would feel obliged to hide the name from time to time!

I have a D.O.G.S.B.O.L.X. When I had it resprayed, the guy refused to apply the decals with that name! Told me it was offensive!

Orange AirO.

I have one - great bike but crap name. I once had some parts stolen from it and the police officer I was giving the details to on the phone thought it was hilarious that my bike was named after a chocolate bar (once I'd convinced them that I had a blue Orange bike).

Scott Purgatory. I know [url= http://cnnsi.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1136377/index.htm ]why it's called that[/url] but still, it's just a crap name for a bike.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Rose Bikes 2014 lineup:

Granite Chief
Jabba Wood
Root Miller
Count Solo
Dr. Z
Mr. Big
Mr. Ride
Psycho Path
Thrill Hill
The Bruce
The Jester
Soul Fire
The Unchained
Uncle Jimbo
Crystal Stoke
The Duchess
Verdita Green

I love my Granite Chief.... but they need to 'av a word with whoever thinks those up. Some of them are ok I suppose, but they should probably win the award for being the most consistently bad.

POSTED 8 HOURS AGO # REPORT-POST

Surely everyone wants to ride "The Duchess"?

Bianchi Camaleonte - I read it a "cameltoe" every time! 😆

Klumpy - the [url= http://schwinncruisers.com/bikes/krates/ ]Schwinn Krate[/url] was very popular in the US.

I love Rose Bikes names, surely the result of google translating a catalogue through 4 different languages.

Oops, I ride a 15.5" stiffee, was green, but powder coated purple years ago! Just had to be purple....

Also have a nukeproof mega, no too keen on the name, but does not bother me.
