KOGA
KOGA is a Dutch bicycle manufacturer based in Heerenveen, Netherlands. The company is well known for its long time partnership with Japanese frame manufacturer Miyata, producing bicycles and sponsoring racing teams under the brand name Koga Miyata. As of May 2010 the partnership ended and the company began manufacturing bicycles under the KOGA brand.〔() at ''koga.com''〕
== History ==
The company was founded by Andries Gaastra in 1974, who therefore left his function at his fathers company Batavus. The name Koga is a combination of his surname and that of his wife Marion Kowallik. The addition of Miyata came from the cooperation with Japanese manufacturer Miyata. Koga Miyata relied on Japanese quality components from manufacturers such as Shimano.
From 1980 Koga Miyata started the sponsoring of the ''IJsboerke'' cycle team. This led to immediate success when the Dutch Peter Winnen won a stage in the Tour de France at the Alpe d'Huez. The international recognition of the Dutch Koga Miyata brand started growing.〔
In 1992, Gaastra sold his company to the Atag Cycle Group, which had already acquired Batavus six years earlier.
