A con man/woman who makes a living pulling scams on others.
Bike stunt which involves pulling on the back brake on your chopper/bmx/chipper/grifter and swinging it round kicking up the gravel.
Familiar to anyone who owned, or knew someone who owned, a Grifter. The bike had three gears, all accessible via a twisty handlebar (very cool): red (for power sprints whilst racing around the block), yellow (normal) and blue (to get you up that steep hill with minimum effort). If you managed to jam the gear between red and yellow, the chain wouldn't connect properly to the cogs, resulting in "slip gear". You could booby-trap a mate's Grifter and laugh your arse off as he frantically attempted to pedal away, only to get nowhere and eventually fall over.
