Like Ed already said, ain't you just being a touch racist? It's just total nonsense that products made in China are automatically worse than products made anywhere else. Stuff made in China is of excellent quality if a company wants it to, just the same as stuff made in the US could be of top notch quality or a bag of shit. People, understandably, want things they use made in their native country but does it really have anything to do with where they are made?
Your claim of things made in Taiwan are potentially better quality than China is unfounded. Any facts from your industrial expert pals you want to share?
I am Chinese and I am insulted.
I believe last years Foffa Ones were made in Taiwan and they were actually pretty decent bikes believe it or not. The finish and welding on the frames was really good. The 2014 bikes are I belive being made in China and the quality has dropped significantly to say the least. Maybe it is on this that Dani has based his opinions? I can't help but think that if he'd ever looked at an H+Son rim (which to be fair I didn't know were made in China until yesterday) and compared it to his own, he might think differently.
