[Closed] Unknown bike brands in the UK...?

mboy · 2013-05-16T18:06:56Z

Came across a couple of brands today, for sale in the UK, one of which I'd only seen abroad before, and the other I'd never even heard of! I'm sure if you're brought up in their respective native countries, they're very popular, but I wasn't, so they were new to me in the UK. Just like say Whyte, Orange or Planet X/On One may be in this country for instance. Anyway... The 2 brands... Bergamont (who I'd seen before when in Germany), and Bottechia. The Bergamont 29er looked quite well specced and good geometry for the money, the Bottechia's less so (typical Italians!) and their road bikes looked to me like a cheap Chinese knock off Pinarello! But that's just my opinion... So what other brands that are popular abroad do we not really get in the UK, or do we actually get but surprisingly nobody really knows about it?

Pronghorn don't seem very well known.
