Some other names to consider are ICE and HP Veloteknic at the high end, and SUN and Performer for trikes and bikes.
ICE in particular has sold a lot if trikes here, and HPV is also well regarded
SUN made some very good recumbents at a decent price point that are often found on the used market. The EZ-1 and the Sport are relatively easy to ride and were designed by Martin Gardner from Easy Racer. The Sport was available in an aluminum frame with better components, the AX version.
Performer is from Taiwan, has USA dealers and some very good bikes for the money.
