Herb where does your inside information come from? I've actually see a couple bikes and they are Kenisis built in the USA as far as I can tell. Do you just assume that they're made in Taiwan? Do you then assume that things from Taiwan are junk? You do know what they say about assuming things, right?

I'm a firm believer in living, working, and shoping locally. I also belive that just because it's made somewhere else doesn't automatically make it bad.
