The 20 Most Popular Bike Brands Sold in the US
Well, this is certainly a controversial, complicated and constantly evolving topic. There are so many bicycle manufacturers, bicycle types and popular brand names sold in the US, that it can be difficult to find a comprehensive summary and to sort it all out.
The top 20 most popular bike brand listing that I've compiled here is not based on the number of bikes sold alone or on the quality or perceived quality of the bicycles. Most of the bike manufacturers listed here also sell different bike types (road, mountain, hybrid, etc.) and the list below is not broken down by bike type or category.
This listing is intended to be a guide as to what bike brands are currently the most popular in the USA, at the time of this writing (since bike brands come and go and the sales of various bike types rise and fall).
The Top 20 Most Popular Bike Brands and the bike types that they sell
Trek - Road, Triathlon , Mountain Hardtail , Mountain Full-Suspension , Urban , Bike Path, Cruiser , Women's , Kids Schwinn - Road, Commuter, Comfort, Cruisers, Electric, Mountain Bikes, BMX, Kids Giant - Road, Mountain, Giant for Women, Lifestyle, Hybrid (HCT), BMX, Kids Cannondale - Road, Mountain, Women's Recreation (many sub categories) Mongoose - BMX Bikes (Team Bikes, Freestyle Bikes, Dirt Street Bikes) Mountain / Pavement (Dual Suspension, Jumping, Hardtail XC, Comfort, Commuter, Road Alternative, Raleigh - Road, Performance Hybrid, Hybrid, Comfort, Mountain, Cruiser, Women, Youth Specialized Road, Multi Street, Globe (commute, comfort), Dirt/Street/Vert (BMX), Kids ATB Diamondback - MTN Full Suspension , Mountain Hardtail , Devine Designs , Comfort ,Cruiser , Performance Hybrid , Hybrid , Youth , BMX Fuji - Road, Mountain, Specialty, Women's, Lifestyle, Kids Haro -All Mountain-Freeride, Dirt Jump/ Urban, XC Trail / XC Sport, 650B, 29er, Metro, Comfort, Cruiser Shimano - Road, Mountain, Comfort, BMX Huffy - since 1892 - Mountain, BMX, Kids, Road Gary Fisher - 29ers, Full Suspension, Genesisters, Hardtails, Kids, Pavement, Road Ellsworth - High end Mountain Bikes Klein - High end Mountain and Road Bikes Jamis - High end Full Suspension, Hardtail, Road, Street, Sport Comfort, Youth Bianchi - Hors Categorie (HOC), Born for Performance (B4P), Coast to Coast (C2C), Dama Bianca, D2, Special, Classica, Road Steel, MTB Performance, MTB Leisure, Sport, Cross-Terrain GT - Mountain, BMX, Road, Womens Rocky Mountain - Mountain, Road, Urban & Path, Ladies Only Scott - Mountain, Road, Women's Junior's
Some of the popular bike brands listed here can only be purchased at specialty bike shops or independent dealers. Although this marketing technique makes these brands harder to find, in some cases this it improves the perceived quality of the bikes over brands that are distributed to the mass market or that can be easily found at sporting goods stores or even online.
I have included the bike types or bike categories that each manufacturer sells under the brand names listed. The bike type descriptions were, in most cases, taken directly from each bike manufacturers website in order to not only let you know what kind of bikes they make but also how the company perceives the bike types that they make and how they market them to you.

Installing New Road Bicycle Pedals
Installing new pedals yourself is quick and easy.
You will need the following:
* Allen key and/or pedal wrench
* Grease
Removing the old pedals:
Removing the old pedals from your crank can be easily done with either the bike on the floor or in a work stand.
Note: Pedals like the Look Keo Carbons do not accept a pedal wrench. These pedals will require an Allen key that can be placed in the spindle from the back side. Be careful you might have a cadence magnet in there - so remove it before you attempt to remove the pedal.
If using a work stand, place your hand on the rear wheel or grab the brake to stop the wheel from spinning.
The right pedal will come off just like any other bolt system you've used. Turning the spindle counter clockwise (left) will loosen the pedal. However, the left pedal is reversed threaded and will need to be turned clockwise (right) to loosen. Don't be surprised if you need to put your shoulder into it; water and time may have removed the grease, causing them to stick.
Installing the new pedals:
With the old pedals removed, clean out the threads on your crank arm - removing any dirt or old grease. Grab your grease and new pedals. Place a strip of grease on both threads of the pedals.
With the new pedals greased use your fingers to catch the threads and snug them up to your crank arm. Avoid using tools until they are finger tight. Remember the left pedal is reversed thread. Take your time, there is nothing as disappointing as stripping your crank.
With your new pedals finger tightened take your Allen key or pedal wrench and snug them up to your crank arm. Typically a quarter or half turn passed finger tight is enough. When they are firmly in place use a rag to wipe up the excess grease. Now recheck your pedals, ensuring they are firmly in place.
On your first few rides check your pedals to ensure they are still snug against your crank.
If you do a lot of wet weather riding it may be prudent to remove your pedals and apply new grease from time to time. If you've ever had your pedals seize to a crank arm you'll know why it's worth the extra effort.
