I apologize if I've been mislead, and I don't mean this to be disparaging in any way -- in fact, it wouldn't/doesn't slow me down one iota from droolingly covetting his excellent frames --but fwiw


isn't the entire rear triangle of a Crumpton an off-the-shelf part from Easton, i.e., a Taiwanese company? Fork too, is my understanding.

If that is in fact true it seems really disingenuous to call a Crumpton "entirely made in the USA"

Again, not that I would give a rat's ass where one of those beauties was made...

I have two

I have two both steel

Hampsten Cinghale (Match Built in Seattle.) # AH140 I belive it is 2001. Full Campy except Chris King head set which is cool I think most Hampstens come with CK head sets.

Waterford RS12 from 1998 now a fix gear with Campy.

Note to [happycampyer] what year is your Cinghale pro just curious when Hampsten started using IF as their steel builder?

I own two bikes, both made in the USA.

2008 Serotta Coeur D'Acier
2004 Serotta Ottrott St

So who else owns bikes all of which are made in the USA? What are they?

Not that there's anything with buying American, but count me among those glad to have some bikes made outside the U.S.:

Merckx MX Leader
Look 381
Colnago Masterxlight
and a few vintage Italian frames (Olmo, Ciocc, Pogliaghi)
