    Taiwanese Bianchi

    Is it true that some Bianchi bikes are made in Taiwan (or at least partly made there)?  I like to think that all Bianchi bikes are made in Italy but in this day and age one cannot be sure anymore.

    Thank you for your advice and comments.

    I have also heard that it is true. My Bianchi is (of course) made in Italy like Bianchi should be.

    It is place where the bikes like to come, One of the key points is regarding the made in sticker on your bike- from a US perspective  if over 60% of the value-add comes from  Italy, they can slap a Made in Italy sticker on it. So if your Bianchi frame costs Bianchi $200 from China but they paint, decal, assemble and box the bike in Italy and ultimately retail it for $4,000 it is"made in Italy . Your dislike of me goes back to you getting all huffy about my comments on Taiwanese Bianchi's.
