a.k.a. Chuck Ibis.
Ibis was a high-end bike company in the 90's and early '00's. They made 3 bikes that I absolutely lusted after: a Ti road bike that was beautiful, stiff and very expensive, an innovative full-suspension mountain bike that used the flex in the Ti chainstays as the rear suspension rather than installing a hinge (thus lowering the weight of the bike to about 22 lbs.) and, my favorite, the Hakkalugi cyclocross bike initially only available in "Gang Green".
Nichol sold the original Ibis, the new Ibis went out of business , but now the original Ibis is back in business. It looks like they are now building in carbon fiber rather than Ti or steel. Happy to see them back in business.
