Most industry people consider Bob Parlee’s frames the best carbon fiber bikes made in the US.
Outside the US, a tremendous number of frames are made to very high standards.
Basically, it comes down to how much marketing do you want to believe. I 100% guarantee, your local bike shop has been fed a large amount of aerospace “blah blah”. It is your choice to believe it or not.
The bike industry is incredibly small, If you are an inseder, you will hear hundreds of stories. " did you hear the _____ bikes are made in the same factory as the _____" Yes it is true.
