    Germany. Bicycle parts.
    Sure, the market leaders are Shimano from Japan and Sram from the US.
    But look into the high-priced niches and there’s:

    • Bosch, market leader for e-bike motors
    • Schwalbe, market leader for bicycle tires
    • Rohloff, makes the best gear hubs in the world
    • Pinion, makes the best bottom bracket gearbox in the world
    • SON, makes the best hub dynamos in the world
    • Busch & Müller, makes the best bicycle lights in the world
