Orange ..... Slightly disappointed.

My American Felt was made in some place called U.S.A. lying sods.

 

[Globalti]

The frame was welded together in Taiwan but the bike may have been BUILT in Britain. What's wrong with that?

BTW somebody has sneaked in and flipped your stem up to a silly angle while you weren't looking. Take it off and flip it horizontal like it should be with drop bars.

My Crush and G2 both had the same sticker on their bottom bracket.

As said built not made

My old Sid Mottram frame was I believe a Mercian frame with Mottram decals Don’t think Columbus had discovered Taiwan back then.Then again perhaps old Chris didn’t discover Taiwan.

Ops I’m rambling again

Judging by a lot of British tradesmen I know then I would be grateful it was not made here.

They obviously weren't tradesmen then.

Time served but poor quality. Does being a trades person mean you are top quality?

Yes.

Off topic I know but I get more pain the more upright I go.

 

[screenman]

Yes.

So a time served plumber with say 10+ years experience, what would they be?I

I am not messing with you just educating myself.

I'm increasingly convinced that back pain is caused by bad bike fit not by low handlebars. I would advise anybody buying a new bike to have a professional bike fit, which should cost around £50 and is usually deducted from the price if you then buy a bike.

Depends very much on what he has done for those 10 years. One thing I've learned in the industry is, just because someone has been doing something for years, does not mean they have been doing it right.

Unfortunately they may still be a trades person, just not a good one.

No. It should match the angle of the top tube - maximum aesthetics

Why would they pay £50 when you seem to be able to do it online for free?
