The Bats are pretty C&V themselves at this point, but still making perfect Kiwipop.
Not being from NZ myself, I was not aware of the Loline, but the video seems to nail it.
Morrison and Healing
Morrison and Healing produced some of the first BMX and mountain bikes in the 1980s. However, after the lifting of import restrictions in the late 1980s, allowed in cheaper bikes from Asia, both companies were bought by Masport Group which ceased manufacturing bicycles. Sheppard Industries continued to assemble Avanti bikes from imported parts.
Healing made quite a pile of roadbikes back in the 1980s too .
Their own ''gas pipe '' creations called Skylarks and bunch of others
Also built Peugeot frames under license here in little old NZ
