) Homegrown is "dead" so there's not a Schwinn made in the US anymore.
Surprise, guys, but as far as I know, Schwinn has been manufacturing overseas (Japan, then Taiwan, then China) since the late 1970's and almost exclusively so since the early 1980's.
Any tears you cry will have to be retro tears.
So they sell their bikes in Wal-Mart. Big deal. That's marketing, not manufacturing.
