Yes, it is made in Taichung, Taiwan. Obviously, the current models accommodate most solid axle conversions including e-bikes, 7+ speed internally geared hubs, normal solid axles, etc...There are several models coming out in 2012 that are specific to certain hubs. The ARSA1332 is for Sturmey-Archer 3 and 5 Speed internally geared hubs with a chain indicator coming out the end of the axle. It replaces the "Standard Guide Nut" for Sturmey-Archer. There is also an e-bike model (ARE12) for hubs that have power cables coming out the end of the axles. These products were debuted at Interbike 2011 in Las Vegas.
