Does anyone here "name" their eBikes?

[fooferdoggie]

the beast. defy its name why don't you?

Survivor, the bike that got me through the pando...

And Seeker, the explorer, sporting the ultimate weight-weenie micro under-seat and top-tube bags, with a water bottle so tiny it is only suitable for preventing death, not other symptoms of dehydration. Shot right before a 5.5 mile 2,400 foot climb.

My bike's name will remain private as it may be X rated depending on my mood.....

I have 5 batteries which are just numbered. I use them interchangeably with my 3 bikes called "Old Sparky" (from the film the Green Mile), "Thomas" (for Thomas Edison) and "Nikola" (for Nikola Tesla).

My grey Vado is "Grizzle".
My formidable Trance E+ is "Monster".
My Lovelec Diadem is "Lowelek" (a Polish pun on the brand name; it is how little kids pronounce "rowerek", or a kid bicycle)
My future Vado SL would be "Arnold".

I asked friends what the best name for an SL e-bike would be. We had started with SyLvester StaLlone. "Rambo"? Not. "Sly"? Good! but I didn't like the name. Suddenly, a friend wrote "Arnold" I liked the name though that would be Schwarzenegger not Stallone

I haven't officially given my OHM Cruise a name, though "Mustang" does come to mind occasionally.

My Spark Mini fat folder is "The Mule", so maybe I SHOULD make the Cruise "Mustang" to stick with the equine theme.

Still working on a name for the white Aventon Pace 500.
Started out last August with “Betty White” because it’s small and feisty. But then the real Betty White passed away in Dec.
So one week it was “Oreo” because it’s a sweet little bike.
Then I thought “Little Panda” it’s cute and black & white.
One week it was “White Lightning” after moonshine and how good it makes you feel.
This week it’s “Angel” because it’s a heavenly ride.
I am open to other ideas.
Guess it doesn’t really matter. These darn ebikes don’t come when they are called.

Shortly after purchase, before different seat, rear rack, & Kinekt seat post.

My Giant Revolt e+ pro is green - therefore: The Jolly Green Giant

@Darth_Vado: I think the name you gave your Vado is about one of the best in these Fora

The current build of my Vado 6.0 is Roadrunner (as it feels the best on asphalt).

My Vado SL is Fearless. As I was demo riding another Vado SL in June 2021, there was a sudden squall and hail! Vado SL brought me through the weather easily. So I thought that lightweight low power e-bike feared nothing. Additionally, HMS Fearless was a light cruiser spaceship from David Weber's "Honor Harrington" series of books

I named my 2024 Bulls Iconic Evo, "Winnie", short for Winnebago, because that's how it feels compared to my 2016 Haibike Xduro.

 

[Chazmo]

“Fättie.” Duh.

Thank you!

In general, i really don't like naming objects. But in this case, it just seemed to fit

My idea to name the first build of my big Vado was "Knight Rider" (A David Hasselhoff movie car) but the name was rather clumsy. Eventually, Vado 5.0/6.0 Build 1 got the name of "Highway Star" (a Deep Purple song)

Junkyard Angel. So far, Robert Zimmerman hasn't taken the trouble to sue me for the copyright violation.

Thought about naming my Vado SL 1 several times but have yet to come up with a keeper.

First inclination was to give it a woman's name like a boat — maybe Bobbi Jo for how fun it is, or Lana for how beautiful a design it is, or Serena for the mental state it puts me in. Nah, it's not at all like a woman — and vive la difference!

Also considered inspiring names, clever names, funny names, plays on its color, etc. Problem is, the bike's too many good things to me all at once. Any tag beyond "the SL" seems too narrow.

Besides, best that my wife not find out that I've named the SL. She's jealous enough already.

So, was there never an Arnold?
