Reflective tape?

Reflective tape?

Nope, cheaper made in Uzbekastan.

why not man-up and git a Motolite?

Exactly what I was going to say. It's been the best riding xc fs bike I've ridden and you can usually find a new frame at a good price.

I have ridden a motolite recently.
I just dug the geometry more on the Blur. I was able to manual it easier, which is a plus, and it was a little more slack then the Moto, which works better for how I ride.

Fox suspension (at least assembled here, not sure where the actual manufacturing happens)
Thomson stems/ posts
Phil Wood hubs/ BBs
Paul brakes/ levers
King hubs/ headsets
etc.
Plus a whole lot of frames that I'm too lazy to list.

I think Hadley is made within the states too actually, even though they're a pretty small operation.

Trek , the others that were mentioned already. Not all trek are US made, the madone 5.1 and higher are, I forget where it starts ont eh Mtn bikes

I wants a Trek 69'er, but that seems more like a fetish/play bike to me then something I can get five years out of like I did with my Enduro.

I dont like the 69er. I dont like how it feels.

I hear you there. She saw the "look of love in my eye" after the second mile, and got on the "honey, its not in the budget right now" speech.

Mind you, she hasn't seen her new Demo, so I am either going to be in a lot of trouble, or I will be absolved as I got her the new toy for her first.

women are strange that way

Yeah, I am trying to convince my wife I "need" a new road bike, Trek 5200 to be exact. Wish me luck on that one.

There's talk of a 96er. Large Marge up front to even things out. I'm just sayin'...
