Probably not made in the USA anymore.....but its a SCHWINN

New OCC Stingray and the original (probably made in USA)

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

I have a GT, they are great bikes and so is Cannondale. No problem finding one in ther good old USA.

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

My 2000 Schwinn was made in USA. :)

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

Roleigh (sp?) was a few years ago, hopefully still is.

A different company, Roark Cycles, may be the finest bicycle made, and it's here in the USA, but spending thousands for a custome titainium cycle for a 5 year old may be ... excessive. But, Roark's boy got one. www.roarkcycles.com

That gold Stingray is EXACTLY like the one I got for Christmas 1965.

Cannondale frames are US made... but you will most likely end up with either Japanese, Chinese, or if you want to go high buck, Italian gears and components.

the democrats were nice enough to make a list for us...with it seperated easily into red and blue columns ... just like the election did, i'm sure this silly campaign will backfire too, the only decent one on "thier side" of the list is costco and the only reason i'd buy anything there is because you can return it anytime :D

THAT'S IT

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

someone say cannondale. here is mine,,
its the most over enginered mx bike, so i had to have this thing. its actually pretty awsome. i have a 02 kx 250 also for track but for woods/tails/ hills etc the cannon is the way to go,,,

A 5 year old on a Canondale, every kid on the block will be trying to steal it. My son rides one, he is now 9 and has been on it for the past 3 years. I got him the F600, not sure if it's still available. They are a very nice bike and can really take the punishment the kids give them. Be prepared to pay though, the F600 back then was $800, a lot of $$$ for a kid's bike.

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

you are looking for one with a motor right!! if u are starting out a kid i would do the ktm jr or a pw 50 if small kid..

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

Same here....birthday present in '66. I want the new style OCC for Christmas, so had to dig up an Ebay pick to show the wifey the original. :D

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

No... regular bicycle for now ... don't want to spoil the kid too much, or give mom a heart attack !!!!! :D

Nice garage you've got there !!!!

Re: Buy American !!!!
 

I have been looking for the same thing. In our search we found that some of the Schwinn's are still made in the States. You just have to look to know for sure.
