Cool thing is it has replaceable dropouts so I could perhaps get someone matching some horizontal ones so I could do single speed

I think it was a rebrand from a different company. It seems there are others like this but this seems to be the most common.

Hi, yes the Bogner carbon bike was a frame from someone else.
Created by Graphite Technology in US and sold in particular in Europa with many different stickers on. I think there was a specific French guy, Didier Louis, involved acting as re-distributor.
Please have a look here, especially in recent months we have found more and more similar bikes from different brands.
https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/white-mountainbik-graphite-technology-aegis.369343/post-3329741Better read the entire thread, interesting bikes.
Bogner itself was/is a fashion brand in Germany.
Still around https://www.bogner.com/de-de/bogner-world/
The former boss Willy Bogner was also doing a lot of outdoor movie filming (e.g. skiing scenes for several James Bond movies)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willy_Bogner_Jr.
He also started a to sell Mountain Bikes early do mid ninties.
We do have a thread in the German forum
https://www.mtb-news.de/forum/t/wb-bogner-willy-bogner-infos-bilder-modelle.960313/There are no catalogs, but I have buyer guides showing the portfolio.
A list of models from 1992-1995 is here
