The 20 Most popular Bike Brands Sold in the Us

Well, this is as a matter of fact a controversial, involved and constantly evolving topic. There are so many bicycle manufacturers, bicycle types and popular brand names sold in the Us, that it can be difficult to find a comprehensive summary and to sort it all out.

The top 20 most popular bike brand listing that I've compiled here is not based on the whole of bikes sold alone or on the quality or perceived quality of the bicycles. Most of the bike manufacturers listed here also sell distinct bike types (road, mountain, hybrid, etc.) and the list below is not broken down by bike type or category.

Mountain Bike Tops

This listing is intended to be a guide as to what bike brands are currently the most popular in the Usa, at the time of this writing (since bike brands come and go and the sales of assorted bike types rise and fall).

Some of the popular bike brands listed here can only be purchased at specialty bike shops or independent dealers. Although this marketing technique makes these brands harder to find, in some cases this it improves the perceived quality of the bikes over brands that are distributed to the mass store or that can be as a matter of fact found at sporting goods stores or even online.

I have included the bike types or bike categories that each constructor sells under the brand names listed. The bike type descriptions were, in most cases, taken directly from each bike manufacturers website in order to not only let you know what kind of bikes they make but also how the business perceives the bike types that they make and how they store them to you.

The Top Selling Yachts Brands And Makes

The yacht, from the Dutch word Jach, which means to hunt, was originally defined as a light, fast pilotage vessel used by the Dutch navy to track pirates and smugglers nearby and into the shallow seas of the Low Countries. The word was later used to enumerate a wider range of vessels, normally of private use, and powered by sail, power, or both, and used for pleasure cruising or racing. Generally, powered yachts are referred to as motor yachts to distinguish them from yachts with sail propulsion.

There are a number of yacht varieties, namely Day pilotage yachts, Weekender yachts, Cruisers and Racing yachts. Day pilotage yachts are normally small, below 20-foot (6 m) vessels. Commonly called dinghies, they often have a retractable keel, centerboard, or daggerboard. Day pilotage yachts do not have a cabin. Weekender yachts are small, below 30-foot (9.5 m) vessels. They often have twin keels or lifting keels, and this enables them to control in shallow waters, and if needed, they could be "dry out" or become beached as the tide falls.

Cruisers are by the far the most popular yacht in private use, production up most of the 25- to 45-foot (7 m to 14 m) range. These boats can be quite complicated in design, as designers try to find a equilibrium between docile handling qualities, good light-wind performance, interior space and on-board comfort.

Racing yachts are Commonly used to sell out the wetted face area, which creates drag, by keeping the hull light whilst having a deep and heavy bulb keel, allowing them to hold a tall mast with a great sail area. Contemporary designs normally have a very wide beam and a flat bottom, to furnish buoyancy preventing an excessive heel angle. A racing yacht can attain speeds of up to 35 knots, depending on good weather conditions.

In the European yachting market, manufacturers such as Azimut-Benetti, Feadship and Lürssen dominate the very top end of the yacht construction market.

In the Us, Catalina Yachts is a popular builder of fiberglass monohull sloop-rigged sailboats ranging in sizes from eight to 47 feet in length. It was founded in 1969 in Hollywood, California by Frank Butler. Catalina Yachts is one of the largest boat manufacturers in the world, with over 80,000 boats produced to date.

Though Catalina constructs boats from as small as eight feet under their Capri nameplate, the business is best known for its production of mid sized cruisers. The ocean-going Catalina 50 was their largest design, but has been discontinued and supplanted by the 470. The boating firm is known for supporting their older models dating back to 1970 by providing any bolt on parts. Most traditional models are still in production, with substantial modifications, and there are examples of every Catalina model still in use.

The Columbia 50's elegant beauty, exceptional comfort, and good race execution made this organize a success. During the mid sixties Columbia produced a few motor yachts.

By the late 1960s, the business was the world's largest fiberglass sailboat builder with manufacturing plants throughout the world. In September 2001, the firm was renamed the new Columbia Yacht Corporation, and produced the Columbia 30 Sports Yacht - with a Southern California Owc Phrf rating of 51.
