The bicycle industry has always tended toward a "pack mentality." Everybody wants to make whatever is most popular, and nothing else. At the end of the '86 model year, all of the manufacturers said, with one voice "Whoah! Touring bikes are over!. No more touring bikes! Now we will all build...mountain bikes! Touring bikes became extinct at the production level. Well into the early '90s, a cyclist seeking a touring bike would be sold a left-over '86.

Um 1987 fiel der amerikanische Dollarkurs ins bodenlose und sein Kurs halbierte sich gegenüber dem japanische Yen. Japanische Fahrräder wurden für die meisten US-Amerikaner unerschwinglich.


Around 1987, the bottom fell out of the dollar, and it became worth less than half what it had been against the Yen. Japanese bikes became un-affordable for most Americans.
Zehn Jahre zuvor hatte die japanische Industrie unter amerikanischer Anleitung den Prozess von der Herstellung minderwertiger Fahrräder, die unpassend für den US und europäischen Markt waren, zu einer dominanten Marktposition auf dem US-Markt vollzogen. Dieser Kreislauf wiederholte sich nun, als die [[taiwanesisch]]e Fahrradindustrie unter japanischer Führung lernte, wie man Fahrräder für den US- und europäischen Markt baute.


Ten years previously, the Japanese industry, under American guidance, made the transition from shoddy bikes, unsuited to the U.S. market, to a position of dominance in the U.S. market. This cycle was repeated as the Taiwanese bicycle industry, under Japanese guidance, learned to build bicycles with the design and quality needed to succeed in the U.S. market.
