I asked Mike about this, to see if he had some insider's info, because I know that Merckx used to go to great lengths to say that they made their bikes in-house. That may have been a marketing ruse, but I don't think so. It may be that Mike has just assumed this (it's a logical assumption, based on other marques practices) but I think this bike frame was made in Belgium (Albeit on Italian carousel frame building equipment, etc., etc.) Dale
