In fact, several 'Italian' brands buy frames in Taiwan and then ship them, unpainted, to Italy. They ship the frames to the individual factories where they get painted, and the assembly begins. Asian frame builders like Kinesis, A-Pro, and Astro build frames for brands like Fuji, Trek, Motobecane, Specialized, Felt, Bianchi, LiteSpeed and dozens of others. In the case of the frame, several frame shops in Taiwan build road frames for many high end brands. Then the 'factory' just applies decals, assembles, and boxes the bike. They buy everything on the bike from subcontractors who make the assorted parts. What is also highly interesting is that these same 'factories', in most cases, only do assembly. Big names in the bike biz, all made in Asia. Another common 'factory' is Merida they build for the likes of Specialized, Jamis, Mercier, Felt, Bianchi, and many others. For example, IDEAL builds for Fuji, Trek, Motobecane, Windsor, Terry, and many others.

It seems there was a long relationship between Windsor and Cinelli and Colnago, too. at least a few records were held by the Windsor teams. The Windsor name originated with an early English cycle maker that was renowned during the 60's-80's (and earlier).
