Question - Which is the most famous/ respected cycle brand that no longer exists?

Technically Roberts is still going, just under Geoff instead of Chas. He still makes the original Dogs Bolx.

Another vote for Klein.

The Attitude was so different and ground breaking to what was around in 1990.

Spooky was another brand that made some really good stuff. The precursor to the jump bike we know today.

Good shout, the Trailstar was quite a groundbreaking frame really.

Spooky are long gone though
