And that would be different from just about all other high-end bicycles how?

It also depends on what you mean by "manufactured". While the frame and components of Canyon bikes are made outside of Germany, complete bicycles are assembled in Germany.

You do realize that very few American bicycle companies produce their frames and components in the US, right? The big American bicycle companies (Trek, Specialized, Cannondale) all produce their frames in Asia.

This is hardly unique to the bicycle industry. Many American companies do the majority of their manufacturing outside the US. Apple computers and cellphones, Nike athletic shoes, and Levi's denim jeans, just to name a few.
