What are you favourite bike-brand nicknames?

[Tazed]

Just realised the new Hammerschmidt front drive systems will probably get called Hamstershit if they don't work.
For a while back there, friends and I used to call Shimano, obviously, Shitmano.
Crappadale also came into it.

So what nicknames do you have for bike brands?

 

[scblack]

Hussefelt cranks are sometimes called Butterfelt.

So soft they're like butter.....

 

[Joy]

Dorko (Norco)
Cannonfail (Cannondale)
Manipoo (Manitou) always a classic

 

[b_S]

Kona = boner
Cannondale = crack'n'fail
Giant = (funny pronounciation) gee-anti
Sram = spam
Rapidrise = crapidrise / rapiddemise
Yeti = spaghetti

I ride an "asshole", well thats what my mate with a 'crack'n'fail' calls em.
Why? cause all the others we ride with have 'Gee ants' like me.

So +1 for Cannondale = crack'n'fail
Giant = asshole... cause nearly everyone has one including me
Giant = Gee Ant
Huffy = Huffy...
RockShox = PoxShox
Avanti = Avarnti (said with plum in mouth)
Chris Eatough = Chris eat off the floor (not the plate)
SC Nomad = SC Shlomad
X0 = Ex Ho
Felt = Smelt
Crank Bros = Wank Bros
Scott = Snot

Bahahahaha.

 

[Lorday]

Trek - Feck/frek

 

[Steve-0]

STP's = STD's

I know its not a brand but its probably the most common nickname.

 

[Binaural]

I used to call my SGS DH bike (Iron Horse) the "Lead donkey". It was so heavy, the gravity it generated would bring the berms to me rather than the other way around!
