Maybe but they seem to have no distributor in Germany and little to no horizontal distribution network None of the major distribution players carries their spokes and they have no legal representative office in Germany--- perhaps even the EU . Seems their main focus was price sensitive OEM selling mainly standard grade spokes for supermarket bicycles. These special sprokes are their attempt to get into the prime markets---- which they first tried and failed using Ti as banner.
There are loads of spoke companies around.. Hard to keep track.. Some of the more major traditional brands in Germany, for example, are Berg (they were founded in 1885), Prym (founded in 1903) and Union (1899). Berg and Union spokes are now WWS. Price? Prym 2,0mm-1.6mm spokes can be had for 10 cents each (mailorder, retail, less in volume).
