Title: Did You Have a "Christine" Bike?
Post by: FIL EBZ on October 01, 2008, 08:16 PM

What I mean is did you ever have a Certain bike that no matter what you did it either broke parts or you or even both. Didn`t set up and basically wouldn`t ride????

I`l start off: I had a DP Firebird that just no matter what i did was just pure evile. Parts would come loose, I couldn`t pull any tricks on it even 1`s I had dialled and the rear freewheel would not line up with the chain ring no matter what i did and in the end the back wheel splipped to 1 side spat the chain off and me with it in to a sprawling mess across the road.
 I gave the frame away and the next owner had no problems.

Thats my story now your turn lol

GT cruiser, was given one when I rode for GT and I couldn't stand it.  So I re-stickered my Curtis cruiser and used that instead.
