But the general comment still stands: the fact that a particular component was manufactured in some country doesn't imply that the whole bike was, as illustrated by the fact that this bike has components made in multiple countries. Perhaps the pedals are a bigger clue for the reasons you state since they would imply that various other components were also French. Or maybe they were made by a French company for export as components to somewhere else. | |
