Just picked up a brand new H3 in person today at a local brick and mortar retailer. When I got home, I was surprised to see a sticker clearly indicating that the product was assembled in Taiwan.
Not a big deal, and I'm not contemplating bringing it back, but I was surprised to see this as all the press/reviews I'd read ahead of the purchase seemed to indicate it was manufactured in the US still. I'd be lying if that aspect of it didn't push me over the edge vs. just picking up a Kickr Core for $100 cheaper.
I wonder if this is a byproduct of the pandemic and needing to increase production to meet demand. In any case I googled and didn't find a single topic elsewhere on this, so thought I'd ask. Thanks.
