    Never heard of them.

    I'd say Rose (http://www.roseversand.de or www.rosebikes.co.uk) were more of a Ribble type shop with a wide range of bikes, components, clothes and accessories.

    That's not to say Vortrieb is bad in anyway it's just that Rose is very well established, has a good reputation and their bikes do well in the review in the German cycling press.

    Yeah Rose are nice tempted to get a ROSE PRO SL-2000 if i eventually decide to have a new bike.

    Either that or a Radon or Canyon. German companies seen to spec higher priced groupsets & wheels on there bikes, than in the UK for a lower overall price.

    Vortreib are a brand selling open mould frames with no input other than cobbling them together for shipping. Bit like another German brand Stevens (yes they are - zero innovation just cheap bought frames from a chinese whole seller). Go for something with a bit more character.
  • Was immer...What kind of bike on that site could you possibly be interested in?

    The technology on all those frames is "older than the last flood" as Germans would say.

    Might was well buy a Pinnacle from the yellow and green boys.
    When a cyclist has a disagreement with a car; it's not who's right, it's who's left.
