Re: Whatever happened to?………..the bike manufacturer edition [pdxjohn]
Serotonin got bought by the same group that bought Mad Fiber and (almost) Blue. They fooled everything to a fair thee well and are out of business. Ben Serotta is now doing various consulting gigs in the industry, including a city bike program (don't remember the town or supplier)

Softride got t of the bike business, but Alsop is still (last I heard) in business doing office supply products.

Calfee is still in business.

Schwinn went bankrupt in '92 and was bought by Scott Sports Group. They then bought GT in 98 and went bankrupt again in '00 / 01. Bought by Pacific Cycles in '01 and taken to the mass merchants. Pacific is nor part of Dorel Outdoor. They own Schwinn, Mongoose, GT, Cannondale, Pacific and I think Iron Horse. Doing by well and are big hitters in the bike biz.

Huffy still in business, but it's branded business has taken huge hits and is a much smaller company than they were even 10'years ago.

Kuota is still in business, but focuses more on the Euro market, I believe.
