Not just the Fox, by the way. I got a 'new model year' Crane ('13) and was pleasantly surprised to find braze-ons forward of the hinge, enough so that I didn't kick the bottle cage while hopping on and off, nor does the cage interfere with the fold. Having the weight of water at the tube instead of off-center in a pocket of my backpack doesn't hurt either.

"The Bike Friday frames are manufactured in the USA. I don't know if the steel tubes and fittings used are American or imported. The tires, tubes, rims, spokes, hubs, cassette, derailleur, chain, crank, bottom bracket, pedals, seatpost, saddle, fenders, brakes, cables, levers, shifters, stem, bars, grips, bell - pretty much everything that turns a bare frame into a complete, rideable bicycle - are imported."
thomson seatposts, canecreek headsets, white industries BB.. sure, everything is made in china, but its worth noting when it isn't.
