With the internationalization of industry it is hard to know where anything is made anymore unless it is labeled.
My Swobo Dixon says Made in Taiwan but the SRAM hub is German made per the last info I have seen.
My Civia Hyland Rohloff has no country label but again the frame is Taiwanese so far as I know. The Rohloff hub is definitely German but most of the rest of the gear on it is Shimano. I have read that most Shimano parts are now made in Singapore. Final assembly on that one is supposed to be done in the U.S.
The frame on my 1990 Trek says "Made in USA" but the components are again Shimano. Old enough so presumably from Japan originally.
Even a lot of Campy parts are I am told are not made in Italy any more and apparently the same is true of many "Italian" frames.
Trying to "Buy American" has become more and more difficult for many products and basically impossible for some unfortunately.
