Well known brands are affected by counterfeit goods of questionable origin every day. The bicycle market is no different. Brazil has been a target market for these products, which are increasingly finding their way into bicycle parts stores. Frames, gearboxes, tables, handlebars and wheels as well as clothing such as shorts, shirts, helmets, glasses and of course complete bikes modeled after famous models. Examples of fake looking paintings that look like but are not.
They are usually made in Asian countries mainly China with complete disregard for safety standards and patent rights. The tax gap is huge as products come in illegally and are not taxed which affects the trade India Mobile Database of bike parts shops but fundamentally there is a problem with cyclist safety using low quality products. Social networks reported several cases of pirated frames and other components from well-known brands that led to serious accidents. Big international brands conduct multiple tests before launching their products, wind tunnel testing and adjustments to the original design so that a given product meets or exceeds the stringent requirements of international standards.
Pirates have no such concerns and are among the models of choice for counterfeiters. Bicycle parts stores point to brands such as Cycling and Bicycle Parts as the preferred brands for counterfeiters and the illicit trade in bicycles and parts. The illegal market is not a problem unique to Brazil. It didn't take long after the big companies in North America and Europe brought their factory designs and manufacturing methods to Asia for the first signs of generic, unbranded components to appear on world markets with counterfeits behind them. It means in English. The fact is that pirated products occupy an increasing space in the market to the point that some companies in the industry have set up special departments to combat the production.
