Bulls Bikes to Hit the US

Last week we stopped by Bulls Bikes during The Sea Otter Classic to see what they were all about, and today they announce they'll be entering the US market. With a solid fleet of bikes already available and talk of a DH bike in the future, we're excited to welcome Bulls Bikes to the States. -Fred

Sausalito, CA //  April 27, 2015 - Bulls Bikes USA opened today for business in the U.S, bringing to the American cycling community German engineering and a wide array of outstanding bikes at an affordable price.

Founded in Germany in 1994, Bulls offers a diverse selection of bicycles including mountain bikes, road bikes, e-bikes, children’s bikes, hybrids, commuters and urban models. The brand has enjoyed notable success and widespread popularity as a staple bike manufacturer throughout Europe and found itself in a favorable position to launch in the U.S. market this year.

Notably the company will initially sell its products only online at BullsbikesUSA.com.

“While we don’t rule-out selling to retail bike shops in the future, we do recognize that the landscape for consumers has changed,” said Sharon Yu, general manager of Bulls Bikes USA. “Selling direct gives us the opportunity to provide a real discount on our products, which directly benefits consumers.”

An example of the selections from Bulls Bikes USA include the Bulls Wild Edge 29 featuring a carbon fiber monocoque frame, full Shimano XT components, Shimano MTB press fit bottom bracket and a Rock Shock RS 1 Solo Air 29” fork. The bike weighs in at 22.7 pounds, and retails for $3,799.

The company will import a limited line in 2015, focusing on 14 mountain bikes and five road bikes, ranging in price from $649 to $5,899. The company’s elite product, the Wild Edge Team 29 is a cross-country and marathon bike that is tested and ridden by Team Bulls, one of the world’s premier endurance cycling teams.
