The answer is obvious, you said it yourself, it is "Made In USA".
See, Mike can figure this out pretty easily. Where it gets squirrely is when you have major sub assemblies done overseas and finally assembly done in the purported "country of origin." This doesn't happen as much with bikes as with cars,
AFAIK (the exception I can think of off hand is when Trek had rear triangles brazed overseas and shipped to the US to be attached to main triangles brazed here). With bikes, I think we could apply common sense 99% of the time and come up with what the "Made in ... " sticker should, in all honesty, say. Whether we should care is another matter and up to each of us to decide. And as has been pointed out, perhaps a bit more research should precede our major purchases.
