Also, I'm not following. Is Trek good or bad? You do know that they are
now operating company stores, directly employing (and paying benefits,
including 401ks) to many home-grown Americans? They also employ plenty of
workers at company headquarters and elsewhere and make domestic profits.
You buy Colnagos, a company with no US headquarters or manufacturing --
and in fact, its high end product is made in Italy -- a socialist country
that was aligned with the Nazis at the outbreak of WWII. Do you hate
America? Are you a Nazi sympathizer? Do you prefer bicycles made in a
socialist country? Why don't you own American bikes? I do -- plus a
Canadian one, which is like America with a health plan.

Wow Jay! You've got a CCM? Or was it a SuperCycle?


Norco -- a Canadian company. The frame is made in Taiwan by honorary Canadians. They even have a hockey team. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C7nepg5W0AAZNEu.jpg Eh?


I actually laughed out loud at that.
