In a world of Bikes gone bad...

Most bikes you find out there are made in China. Even American companies (Trek, Giant, Diamondback) are making bikes overseas.

There are some high end bicycles made in the US, though I can't swear as to the origin of their components.

I'm encouraged to find a number of biking accessories, such as the Lone Peak Pannier series that are made in the USA.

See www.lonepeakpacks.com

I'll continue to look for more, but I can tell you that Campmor (www.campmor.com) sells a children's reflective vest that's good for biking, running or hiking...made in the USA

Happy Riding!
