Buy Local. Support US made products!

Obviously, being a framebuilder, in the US, there is a lot of talk about US made products and trying to reduce our footprint on the earth we live on. Bicycles are obviously a great choice for this. Trying to reduce our amount of wastefulness is important. Too many times we are intrigued to by the cheaper product that burned a hole in our ozone layer just to get here from the other side of the globe. Or buy the carbon bike that can't be recycled and will probably just end up in a landfill when everything is said and done. One of the many reasons I got into this business in the first place is because of these principles. I don't mean to get all 'hippy' on everyone, but sometimes I lose sight on this from time. Keeping a low impact is good. Supporting sustainable US business is important. We don't want to lose the craft. That being said, enjoy this video.
