It helps that I own a company that builds
titanium bikes - less impact on W&B.

I checked out your website and saw that your frames are made in
China... I was over at the bike shop a couple of weeks ago looking
for a new bike for my daughter and noticed that *all* the bikes were
either made in China or Taiwan... Doesn't *anyone* make a bike in the
USA anymore?

Frames cost $8 to make in China...

My bikes (Giant) use Chinese frames and they really are very durable.

Imagine if extrapolated into the aircraft market....
