BikeE NX: know anything about it?
I know it's an older model, now defunct. Anybody own one or know anything about these from personal experience? Thanks-

Bikes: Too many to list comfortably
I seem to remember the NX was the "high end" of their line,
pushing the $3000 price tag.
As I remember, it was the same design as their other bikes
but had disc brakes and higher-end components for the
drivetrain and brakes. It also had front and rear suspension.
Beyond that, I know little. I don't actually believe many were
shipped due to the high price (around $3000 if I'm not mistaken).
Someone had a picture of one once on the net at a BikeE fan
site....it's been a long time since I saw it.

CPSC recalls on BikeE models and other info
You might check out the information on www.bicycleman.com concerning recalls and warnings about the various BikeE models. The site has listings for companies that are now out of business. BikeE in particular had a lot of CPSC safety recalls just before the company went belly up in 2002. Your model is not among the models listed on the site for a general description of the bike. For a long time this store in Alfred, NY was a good source for BikeE parts.

Every time I see a BikeE I think, "what a great design, wish I could get my hands on one".
