When I hear 'bombtrack', i think of 'bombing down the track', meaning going fast on a route/run.
Interesting how a name can disappoint/offend someone and not another person.
Naming products has to be exhausting for companies- weighing the positives and negatives, seeing how the name translates, etc.
"Surly" sounds like an appeal to 90's pre-teen wanna be skaters.
(Disclosure: I love my Surly Krampus, which Surly named after a very mean northern European anti-Santa beast.)
