A common variant in vintage bike circles is "DPO," for "D*ckhead Previous
Owner."  The path to the state of being a "vintage bike" is through the
purgatory of "old junk," where the most appalling maintenance shortcuts are
casually taken, to the dismay of later owners.  I have a seriously abused
BSA engine on my bench right now, and the term "DPO" is on the  very tip of
my tongue ...
