Serotta plant closing temporary, manager says (Albany Times Union)
Quote:
SARATOGA SPRINGS — Serotta, the custom bike manufacturer, will close this month, but "our intention is to continue operations in Saratoga once a restructuring of the business is complete," Divine Cycling Group founder and manager Dan Devine told the Times Union on Thursday.
. . . .
The Serotta website, www.serotta.com, cited outsourcing of manufacturing to Asia as a major obstacle for American-made bicycles. But, "Serotta's DNA – its commitment to high quality, complete control and its American roots – left us no Asian option. We had to keep manufacturing our own bikes here, using parts we design and build ourselves."
