I know my old man loves Redlines but i couldn't fookin stand em, had to ride the pile of shite for the year i was on the team and hated every minute of it

I am with you on this Nik, had a Redline... hated it. 

This is also going to upset some, but when I rode for GT I thought the GT 24" was a complete pile of ****.  Couldn't ride it, everything felt wrong.  Easily one of the worst bikes I ever rode.  Fortunately GT let me use my Curtis cruiser and re-sticker it.

odyssey pitbull=just didnt work

s+m prince albert cranks=lasted 2 weeks

2nd gen taiwan hutch stem=top came away from shaft

I had a torker back in the late 80's/early 90's..now nothing wrong with the bike at all until i snapped the frame but it had a gold araya on the front and a black skyway on the rear. The skyway on the rear used to shat its bearings regular and i was forever buying axle repair kits for it. i must have constantly done it wrong when repairing it but you could guarantee id be 10 miles from home when the crunching started! That said skyways are still my fave round thing!! i just hated that particular ally hubbed pain in the

Tech 2's-
Nearly killed me sen once going down some stairs which came out on to a main road-
Me arse was over the back tyre going down the steep steps, & I couldn't reach the brake levers, so at the bottom of the stairs I just went straight across the main road, luckly it was 1982 & there wernt much traffic back then.

Tange Lock Nuts-
Took a 4 inch strip of shin flesh off on the sharp bits, attempting a fancy knee on stem endo.

Claims Direct would have done good business in the early 80's.
