It is bicycle frame for crying out loud. Why can't we build it here? What is the single biggest cost item that we can't match?

Still plenty built here. At this point I'm pretty much settled on US-made steel mountain bikes of the mid-90s as my everyday ride. I think, except for one kid's bike modded into a cargo bike I was given, every frame I own is US-built.

I don't really know what the answer is for keeping manufacturing on US soil. I've heard over and over that it's incredibly hard to manufacture bicycles with any sort of profit margin.

Which ones? I can't find any that aren't basically boutique type bikes. kj.
