Those Nicolai bikes make anything else look archaic and cheap!!! WOW!

I am a huge fan of German engineering (drive VW's and Audi's), I need to see if I can get a Nicolai imported. The G-boxx tech looks incredible.

There's a lot of German brands. Not sure which frames are actually made in Germany. Nicolai certainly is.

(of course the situation is similar with US and other brands)

Most of those don't make the bikes, just branded/assembled.

From a frame-only perspective I haven't seen any specific innovation over here (Nicolai is well-built) and prices for frame-only rebranded stuff is through the roof considering the Dollar:Euro exchange.

From my American perspective I also think a lot of the brand names are a bit lame: Cube, Steppenwolf, Rotwild, etc.

I like the Cube paint schemes though.

Names are lame :) :p :D

just listen:

Trek
Specialized
Giant
Marin
Kona
Santa Cruz
Intense
Ibex

I am sure most German brands design their frames and get them welded somewhere in Far East. No different from "American" brands.
