@ak-77: I built the CNC with my hands, so i still count that as "hand made" 😄

Throw in a classified internally geared hub for good measure

Pinkbike Poll: Which 2026 Tech Trends Do You Think Are Gimmicks?
I wasn't curious enough to spend the money on the wolf tooth ones, but i was curious enough to 3D model and print some. I like having an end stop of sorts you can relay on, but they aren't a game changer either, not even on really long descends in the alps.

Bike Check: Raphaela Richter's Crossworx Dash Enduro World Cup Race Bike
@GZMS: i was curious and did add some parts. A crossworx trailbike with intend suspension, pirope wheels, ingrid drivetrain, trickstuff diretissima brakes and a hope cockpit would cost you just under 10k. Not saying this is cheap by any means, but also very easy to spend that much at a specialized dealer.

Bike Check: Raphaela Richter's Crossworx Dash Enduro World Cup Race Bike
@latetotheparty: yeah i have seen some amazing 100% euro bikes. I'm not quite there yet, but with my last homebuilt bike I'm not miles off either.
A couple notable european companies you didn't mention that make cool stuff:
- My friends at Scar cycle and dead rabbit who make about the coolest bikes you can imagine (I'm not 100% unbiased;)) as well as Stoll and Nostra.
- Pirope for wheels
- Bright racing shocks
