Cool . A shame there isnt at least one or two european bikes .

Ferraroli were exceptional machines in the early 90s , and Sunn cant be ignored either
 
Hmmm.... European bikes

The article was on milestones. Actually I don't know of a European bike in the same league as Bontys, FATs and even some other US bikes that weren't featured (Zaskar for example :) )

One great bike I could possibly think of that comes close -sort of- is the Sunn DH rig of mid tineties, but don't know whether it was really revolutionary in technical sense. I am not really in the fully-thing.

Pace possibly? Think it is great and quirky, but not a revolution.

For now I can't come up with more.

BTW: What is a Ferraroli?
 
Ferraroli were made by alain Ferraroli , a swiss guy . Mainly steel , great colours , in the same league as Klein . I will try to find pictures .

These bikes were regarded as exceptional .
 
I wish I still had my Tazmon, fully polished with risse terminator shock it was good for anything and everything. Sold it to get a Heckler which was better on the downhills but didn't sprint or climb anywhere as near as well as the Taz. I've got a 17" Taz in the garage that I'm building up for my friend's son just wish it was big enough for me.
 
Now thats commitment. The photo of the san andreas in action, the rear tyre has come of the rim and he's still going for it. :P
