Making bikes in Asia has become standard industry practice. "I think that 96 percent of all American bikes are made in China or Taiwan," says Brian Powell, of Junto Bicycle Works Ltd., Fishtown. "This isn't Pat [Cunnane's] fault," he added, noting Cunnane, although a competitor, has counselled Junto's leaders on how they might start assembling motorized bikes in Philadelphia. For now, "it is impossible to be in the bike business without China," Powell concluded.
