Re: How do you pronounce fuchs?

I believe that PUCH was a bike produced in Austria.
The end-CH is very gutteral, hard to describe.

Fooxs is close enough for FUCHS.
Singular is the same as plural since it's a brand-name:
1 Fuchs wheel
2 Fuchs wheels.

For the animal fox (Fuchs) it's different:
1 Fuchs
2 Fuechse

Want to try some French?
How about the car "Peugot"?
Can be fun.
Pjoogat?
