I had one
 lean back too far and your landed on your head
 brake too quickly and your 'dangle berries' too a wallop from the gear shifter in the middle

interestingly these "features" are not in the new design
probably as a result of the health and saftey brigade

Mine was purple & it had the T gear shifter. They were very unstable at high speed (above 15mph) ;) ;)

I once ran over a drinks can which folded around the front tyre, then wedged itself in the forks & i nearly went over the bars.
I desperatly wanted one & it took me months to talk my dad around, but after i got it i was so dissapointed :'( :'( I never let on though. because i was the only kid to have one for miles around & i was proud of it :) :) :) :)

Me and my 2 friends got one each for Christmas many years ago. Mine was blue, the others red and mustard/yellow. The yellow one had handle bars that could be moved towards the rider giving it even more of the chopper bike look but making it even worse to ride.

Cost my parents £32 and I was very lucky to get such an expensive present at the time.
