Which are the hottest MTB brands of 2023? Which companies are most likely to receive your hard-earned cash in 2024? What components do you prefer and what clothing is in style? Who won the Propain Tyee? We have the answers – your answers!
First off, we want to thank you all again for your participation, engagement and trust! The fact that more than 23,000 bikers around the world answered up to 80 individual questions and provided us with such detailed feedback can’t be taken for granted! All the more so when we consider that the average time to complete the survey was almost 20 minutes! In turn, from the very bottom of our hearts: grazie mille, muchas gracias, tack, merci beaucoup, どうも, dzięki, obrigado, спасибо, hvala, teşekkürler, 谢谢你, شكرا, děkuji, hartelijk bedankt, thanks a lot!
But what exactly do we do with your responses? The results of our reader survey provide significant input into our editorial planning and the future direction of our magazine. It also allows us to select the most relevant brands for our group tests. As much as we would like to review every single bike out here, we can only pick so many. As you can see, our readers really are an integral part of our editorial planning.
Below, you won’t only find out which brands you think make the best mountain bike products, but also who you’ll buy your next mountain bike from.
The best mountain bike brand 2023
The best mountain bike brands 2023 in detail
So how have these results been compiled? It’s really simple: in our reader survey we asked which brands create the best bikes and which brand you are most like to buy. As a bilingual magazine, we seized the opportunity to obtain and analyse data not just from our German-speaking readers but also from the international readers of our English edition. We looked at these separately and it revealed some exciting results.

Best Brand 2023: Parts & Accessories
A top-flight bike is more than just the sum of its parts but even the best bikes are only as good as their weakest component. So which brand makes the best products? Just like with the bikes, we’ve compiled two separate sets of data when it comes to parts and accessories, dividing German-speaking and international readers. While there’s common consensus in certain categories, there are stark contrasts to be seen in the brand preferences across others. Printed in bold you’ll find the brand that received the most votes overall – languages and nationalities have no effect on this result. As you can see for yourself, the breakdown of the results is pretty interesting:
The lucky winner
One of the reasons we like our reader survey so much isn’t just that we can get to know our readers better, but also that we can surprise one of you with a new bike. For this year’s survey, we partnered with Propain to raffle off some great prizes. One lucky reader, Lorenzo, already received his Propain Tyee Shadow and was able to hit the trails with us.
So, these are the best brands of 2023! Not happy with the results? Then sign up for our newsletter so you can make your voice heard in our next reader survey.
