Typical 1970s Bike boom ten-speed road bike Japanese bicycle brands such as Fuji, Miyata, Panasonic/National, Bridgestone, Univega and Nishiki had enjoyed tremendous success during the United States' 1970's bike boom, only to suffer in the late 1980s. Because of the steep rise in the Yen's value, Nishiki and Univega were ultimately absorbed by Derby International, and manufacture of Nishiki bicycles was moved from Japan in 1989 to Giant Bicycles in Taiwan. Derby discontinued the Nishiki brand in the United States in 2001.
