Great! Thanks for that link. I clicked on the link to bicycles and was rewarded with:

http://www.puky.de/cgi-bin/shop/shop_main.cgi?func=rubrik <http://www.puky.de/cgi-bin/shop/shop_main.cgi?func=rubrik&wkid=93437119464& rub1=strassenfahrraeder> &wkid=93437119464&rub1=strassenfahrraeder

(If that link doesn't work just go to http://www.puky.de/gb/ http://www.puky.de/gb/ and click on "Bicycles")

There's a picture of a bike with a typically awful paint scheme for children's bikes, with the caption

PUKY-Color

-and nothing else written under the picture! Such honesty in advertising is refreshing!
