PHB (bicycle)

The term "PHB" is used in some online communities and forums to refer to a bicycle. The origin of this usage is believed to be rooted in internet slang, where acronyms and abbreviations are common. The expansion of "PHB" in this context is often humorously given as "Pretty Hot Bike," "Pretty Helpful Bike," or other similar phrases playing on the acronym's sound. However, it's important to note that this usage is not widespread in the general cycling community and remains largely confined to specific online circles. Therefore, using "PHB" to refer to a bicycle outside of these communities might lead to confusion. The context of its use usually indicates that the speaker is aware the acronym is non-standard and used ironically or lightheartedly.
