Bontrager carbon wheels are made in the USA.

We don't make components (not yet), but our top tube Speedpacks are made in the usa.

Chris King hubs are a must.

I think Knight rims are made in USA.

Dash saddle is USA.

Bars/stem/seatpost if a bit tougher. Can probably get a stem and seatpost from a frame builder, like FireFly.

Or C4 Cycleworks for an insane bar/stem: http://instagram.com/c4cycleworks

If you're going for "home-made" then it really should be SRAM on there , not Shimano.

My HED JET+ wheels have a good old 'Made in USA' sticker on them.

I talk to myself because mine are the only answers I'll accept - George Carlin

As a HED fan boy, and local to their facility, the wheels are made in the USA, but the components of the aren't all domestic. It sounds like they are working on bringing all of their manufacturing in house, but aren't there yet. I think ENVE is the only ones making everything in house.

SRAM products are made in Asia with the exception of chains. They are made in Portugal.

Dash will do seat posts too. Their saddle/seat post combo is pretty sweet :)

I know - some parts are made in Germany too. Nevertheless, its an American company with US headquarters and staff so its closer to the mark than Shimano for a project like this - in my opinion.

Yea thomson is high on my list. Have their stuff on my CAAD 12. I'm trying to figure out what they actually make in Macon. Their website only explicitly lists their X2 stem as made in Macon, GA.

Yea I'm a HUGE fan of HED wheels. The Jet black 4 set is on top of my list but like you said I think they are like several other American companies in that they assemble in the US but parts are Asian.

I know I know. I just am not a fan of etap. I don't like the look, the price, or lack of functionality compared to shimano. And I don't really view SRAM products as any more American than shimano. They all come from Asia in the end.

Paul components and white industries make their products in California. Between those companies you can get hubs, crankset, quick release skewers, seatpost, bottom bracket, headset.

Enve bars, stems, and seatposts are made in Asia.

Efit: Just saw you are looking for a road bike build. Change to an RCA. Tjpse are made in California.



Ignore this part - P5X frames are made by HED. You could buy a complete bike with HED wheels and sell eveything else.

I9 Hubs are made in Asheville North Carolina.(And very nice)

Velocity hoops are 100% made in USA for another option.

Yea I don't think wheels will be the hard part. Bars, stems, seatposts, saddles, etc will be the challenge I think.

What size frame are you getting from allied?

58

Below is a sticker on one of my ENVE carbon rims:

I don't have any Di2 stuff but I am curious what functionality they bring beyond shifting? My ETap and EPS stuff seem to do that just fine, but I keep hearing this line about Di2 repeated.

i'm not going to criticize the stand you're taking here, but i'm interested in your statement above. you don't think that the engineering of a product, its industrial design, testing, etc., the 3D model, the CAD file used to cut the mold, is part of the "manufacture" of a product?

If it's between I-9 and Chris King go with Chris Kings.

I'm basically referring to Syncro shift and the buttons on top of the hoods that can be programmed to control your computer, lights, shift, etc. not massive things but kinda nice. And I like that Ultegra di2 is much cheaper than etap.

The title of your thread does say Going for "made in the USA"
Most of us do not equate Shimano with USA.

Yea I know. I'm gonna make an exception for the groupset that I want. Trying to keep as much of the build as possible USA made but not willing to go SRAM. Just not a fan.

You might take a look at SRAM Red mechanical if you haven't. At least a year or so ago it was the lightest grouppo and I've happily used it for about two years.

ditto for Hed Jet 6 plus. I have them on my Seven and the combination is just perfect. I aimed for lots of USA, but did not stress getting to 100%

But groups is such a critical part of the bike that if you are making an exception you just killed the goal of your project.

Slightly off topic, but are you getting an Alfa or an All Road? I'm a couple months or so out from ordering, and I'm thinking about getting an All Road. I'm very interested in following how your build progresses, as well as what you're opinions are about the bike(and frame) once you get it built up.

But SRAM isn't made in USA anyway. So in my mind I'd be putting a group set that I don't like on there when it's not even made here anyway. im going for as much USA made stuff as I can but I'm not gonna put parts on there that I don't want just cuz.

I'm getting the Alfa. I seriously considered the All Road but the frameset was $800 more and I literally have no use for disc brakes at this juncture. So I went with the Alfa.

Totally agreed. Now it's just a plain vanilla road bike build. Might as well remove "made in USA" from the title of the thread because it no longer makes sense.

I switched from Shimano Dura-Ace to SRAM Red and couldn't be happier. At least the concept was conceived and born in the USA. I would say your goal is now muddied. It's like using a steel frame in a weight weenie build or box-section rims and round frame in an aero build just cuz.

Yea but at the end of the day I have to like the build. I think getting as much made in UsA is still a cool project.

Ok so what groupset are you going to find that is made in the USA?

I always found these pedals to be cool.

They are 30grams a pair and I read somewhere that they are made in USA.

I use Aerolite and M2Racer pedals. Made in USA.

I'm confused. I'm asking for recommendations on made in USA products. The only thing I'm intentionally buying that's made overseas is the groupset cuz I don't have a choice. This thread is turning classic slow twitch. Becoming less helpful the more replies there are.

lightning cranks and eebrakes would both make the bike lighter and stick to the goal.

Thanks!

you have a choice: fixed gear! this has an added bonus in that you can increase your use of name parts with a phil track cog. add some chris king, paul, (kirk) pacenti, and (lh) thomson and you will be a rolling who's who of american part makers! who cares if your legs get ripped off on descents, it will be soooooo cool.

I can't show up to a group ride without electronic shifting....;)

Do you have your bike yet? I’m in the market and looking for info on Allied.

All project one treks are made in the US if you were looking for a frame. Not too sure about the components on it though.

I picked up the frame a few weeks ago. They were dead on their estimate of 3 week lead time. It looks unreal. So good. They did a custom matte black for me with a hint of sparkle in the sun. They were super nice and gave me like a 30 minute impromptu tour of the faculty. Told me to come by (I live right down the street from them) or call with any questions during my build. I officially don’t get it until Christmas so I haven’t started building yet. I really liked the fact that the frame came with pre-routed and labeled dummy wires to make the cable routing super easy. So far I’m super impressed.

3 weeks that’s pretty quick. I’m going to get refit on one of my bikes and then make a decision on a new bike. It’s a 10 year old TI bike that I just can’t seem to get comfortable on. I have made my own adjustments and made it worse so time to see a pro. Good luck with build up.

I think Zipps are made in Indiana, in the USA

Phil Wood Hubs or White Industries as well, if I am correct.

Not true anymore. They are all painted in the US, but a very large quantity are made in factories overseas, but they are very strict on that manufacturing, compared to other companies.
