Rubbish bikes, unless you could do tricks on 'em.
Pedal like stink and you'd always be the one at the back

Loved my chopper, my mate had a grifter, but I much preferred some of my home made hybrid contraptions.

Didn't vote as I didn't have either I had an Edwards I think - it was blue - loved riding my bike and last year treated myself to a cream vintage bike with a big basket on the front - love riding it in the summer along the seafront and when dropping little girl off to school

Had just about every bike going when I was a kid including the 2 in the poll.... The best bike I had was a German import that you had to peddle backwards for the rear brake... That was fantastic at the time... No idea what it was though!
