Default Buy American !!!!

So I'm looking at bikes for my 5 year old for Christmas ... DON"T want to get him one that was made in China (I haven't forgotten what they did to us over in Korea!!!)

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
