i think this comment is spot on and it's pretty sad. and about the extensive expertise part, i'm sure they do but that does not mean they are utilizing it. i feel quality suffers for quota.

"The romanticism associated with “Handmade in the USA” comes to a whimpering end. Why? Taiwanese workers aren’t destroying company profit margins via organized cri… er… labor unions and/or exorbitant compensation/benefits demands. They also have, bar none, the most extensive expertise in the world when it comes to building aluminum and carbon bicycle frames. That’s why even the high browed Italianoes are moving their beloved brands over here. If Ernesto Colnago can suck it up, then u definitely need to get over yourself."
