Walk into your American showroom and pick out a nice chrome part for your American bike.
Now flip it over and remove the gold tag on the back...now it's an American part! I couldn't believe it the first time I saw a sticker from Tiawon on the back of a genuine HD part!
There are so many parts outsourced for everything these days that I don't worry about it anymore.

Situated on 12 hectares on Place des Carmes (named for a convent that formerly occupied the site), the company had only around 50 employees at the time.
