No, your fork was made in China. The frame for the SystemSix was 100% US made. Cannondale makes the rear end of the Rush Carbon MTB frame in Bedford, while the carbon front triangle comes from Asia. Guess what? No "handmade in USA" decal on that frame.
If you want "handmade in USA" to mean the ENTIRE bike, good luck... no one is making derailleurs, shifters, etc. in the US. No one at all.
