Brands That We Want Back! | GMBN Tech Show 355

[@gmbntech]

What bike products and brands that have disappeared do you miss?

[@andrew8200m]

Nukeproof should come back. The Scout was the best bang for your buck hard tail that you could ever want to buy. Absolute banger of a bike.

[@mikeburgh3956]

I love my Nukeproof ☢️ So sad to see them go away 😢

[@Markozzy]

be nice if they came back in future

[@1brenmaster]

All their staff and the brains behind the designs are scattered to the wind. You'd even see one tinkering with Danny Harts bike. Even if the name came back I'm not sure it would be as good.

[@Markozzy]

@@1brenmaster that's true have to find another brand from now on nukeproof are wicked I'm looking at deviate at the moment

[@GlenHunt]

@HARZENDURO said "GRAVEL IS NOT A THREAT TO MTB IT'S AN ADDITION." You mean like a benign tumor? Yes, I agree. Kidding, of course. There's a Brit who runs gravel tours in southern Portugal near where I'm going to move. I plan to book for a day or two soon after I get there. No better way to see my new home than on a bike.

8K for that Cotic is a joke right?

[@christophowen]

The Crud Claw should come back, especially for winter riding. Great bit of kit!

[@andrew8200m]

Swap the battery and motor out for a belt and a pinion gear box.. absolute banger of an opportunity!

[@cra_55]

You know what I'd love to see make a comeback? Japanese bikes! Bridgestone, Panasonic, Miyata etc. A lot of these brands are actually still somewhat alive, but they only serve the Japanese market and they don't really make anything interesting. It's been way too long since we've since anything noteworthy come out of Japan.

I have the Trust Message and Trust Shout fork. Both ride really well at making small/medium sized roots/rocks/bumps disappear. Kind of feels like riding with about 15-20 PSI in your front tire, even though its pumped up to 28. I traded out my enduro bike for a short travel trail bike, so the Shout is hanging up in my garage for future use. .

[@mattkneller900]

Kooka, Roox, Ac, Point one racing, Sunline, Straightline, were all cool Components brands that have disappeared.

[@steveduran1664]

Onza is still around, I just installed a brand new Onza tire on a Santa Cruz just 2 days ago in my shop in the Monterey bay.

[@jimmysmith85]

wud love to see use back they made some stunning finishing kit

[@jackiegammon2065]

I would second "Grip Shuft" making a come back; I still have my 8 speed shifters that I keep saying I'm going to put on another bike. I also would love to see Klein, Bontrager and Fisher back as well, although not if they are simply trying to be like everyone else. I also would add the USA made Cannondale bikes, they had lots of new introductions with products, some good and some not that great... but lightweight/well made frames and lightweight.

[@Shawn-in-da-Canyon]

Trust suspension was developed by Dave Weagle, Jason Schiers, and Hap Seliga.

[@norko94]

One thing I would like to see come back is more main stream steal frame full suspension, I like the feel of my steal Torrent S1 so much, and they are not ready available (at least in Canada I don't see any)

[@Velo1010]

Wouldn’t that be awesome to see Kline come back!

[@tentipiwildcamping]

Im up im Manchester, got a Trust fork on my Bronson, welcome to try it out guys 😊

[@drill_fiend1097]

Trust should just try again but as a gravel fork. It's like uncharted territory with very few competitors in. If they can't compete with traditional MTB forks they might as well try other niches.

[@mechpade]

Just waiting for Structure to release a modernized SCW-1. Mine's a good used bike so far!

[@sopadre77]

Yes! NUKEPROOF! I was lucky enough to pickup a Reactor C about 6 months before they left the States and then went bankrupt. It's a challenge to get parts now but I get a ton of second looks and compliments on it.

[@InitialP_Photography]

Martyn and Owen again? Have they taken over GMBN completely? They should.

[@Bennysmith-du9fv]

Nice wheel's mmm🤟💯

[@trevorsg80]

#quiz Dave Weagle, Jason Schiers, and some guy from competitive cyclist.

[@SwordFighterPKN]

I've got a Trust fork, boy it rides nice. You either like it or you hate it too

[@tentipiwildcamping]

@@SwordFighterPKN Me too, love my Trust fork

[@mattkavanaugh5623]

Martin should be permanently on the tech show!

[@GregLanz]

Klein would be number one for me. I'd also like the old cool Cannondale back from the 90's not the rather generic brand of a conglomerate

[@francisdee9955]

🎉

[@chrisjong8412]

They original Nukeproof ans Syncross should come back, now its a far cry what it has been

[@AppleJack76]

What is the tel # for the Road Bike Help Center? Asking for a friend.

[@Markozzy]

nukeproof is one for me

[@unfineartist]

I miss carumba cranks :)

[@finroddd]

What about Pole?! It was not mentioned. Probably they do not want it back

[@Markozzy]

watch the guy Kesterman video on the cotic ebike very detailed video

[@Shawn-in-da-Canyon]

Gravel is not a fad. They’ll eventually evolve into mountain bikes 🤣

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

Nukeproof was starting to breakout in America and other markets, this is a pretty sad story...

[@Shawn-in-da-Canyon]

Trust screwed themselves by not offering their fork in all the normal travel levels. I wish they would comeback though.

[@greengonzonz]

I love riding mtb and also enjoy road. I've no intrest in gravel 🤔 Anyone else?
