“There have been various answers over the years.
Here's a few from the archives:

City Bike - quite a popular choice

Cool Bike

Chris' Bike

CB comes from the Japanese words "Cobasha - Biokeosan" meaning "Combustion Bicycle".

Also:
"K" stands for "Kairyo" or "Improvement". So, K1 would mean Improvement #1 (jonesdp)
"F" stands for "Four", or "Faster" (?)”

Really like the Cobasha - Biokeosan. That's what I will believe then.

Only thinking what the K meant last week too.

Everydays a school day...

IIRC that came from one of the .net guys in Japan.
