1. boneshaker

   A boneshaker is a term often used to refer to an early type of bicycle that was developed in the mid-19th century. It was so named because it had a stiff, iron-frame and wooden wheels, sometimes even metal tires, which provided a very rough ride, hence "boneshaker". It can also be used more generically to refer to anything that moves in an extremely uncomfortable or jolting manner.
