Scott D Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Aren't lots of modern bike names rubbish? Colnago C50, Trek Madone 5.9, Giant 3200. What are your favourite bike names? Mine are Airborne Valkyrie, and Raleigh Chopper (so called, cos when you slip forward onto the gear lever you damage your chopper) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyS Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 I've often wondered why Airborne named one of their bikes after a Nokia Ringtone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie Da Rosa Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Scott,go away out and ride your bike,you are living in a beautiful part of the world and are reduced to poking fun at poor defenseless bike names.....mind you,I once owned a Raleigh Bomber . My best was the DeRosa King,and my new one is a R3SL,boring name,exciting to ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions martin Posted August 24, 2007 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Raleigh Chopper (so called, cos when you slip forward onto the gear lever you damage your chopper) No more, no more. The health and safety people have done away with that, and the modern chopper now has a handlebar twist grip gear change. But does anyone remember a version of the Chopper with drop handlebars? Now we are talking dumb. Or was that just a Dundee special? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
