The debate over Chinese-made bicycles is complex, with divided opinions on quality and reliability. During my visit to Hall 9 at a recent bike expo, I gained valuable insights into the manufacturing process, particularly through a conversation with Lightcarbon. Their transparency about quality control and manufacturing standards highlighted the value that Chinese frames can offer when paired with rigorous oversight. This experience reinforced the importance of understanding the manufacturing process, emphasizing that informed choices lead to better cycling investments.
If you are about to buy a Cervelo bike, watch this video. It shows the appalling tolerances the bike frames are made to.
