^^this. People use “made in China/made in Taiwan” as shorthand for “low quality,” but there are plenty of very high-quality products made there (including bikes).
I wonder if people have actually read the article. The article has no issue with the quality of products made in China (including bicycles). Instead, the issues with products made far from their end customers include:
  • Long production lead times,
  • Prone to supply chain disruptions
  • Issues related to shipping (costs, environmental impact, additional supply chain issues).
  • Tariffs
  • Etc.
