The very same components used by BMW. don’t let the fact you’re a fanboy blind you to the truth.

I’ll save you having to wait………..yes, he isAre you really that stupid?
You think every component is made in the same Berlin factory ?
Whilst it is pretty much impossible to avoid buying stuff from China, I would prefer not to if there is an alternative option.

Although I do think he may not have bought a bike since Hitler sold his GSI’ll save you having to wait………..yes, he is
If your spoked GS wheels are marked ‘GLM’ on the side of the rim - then they’re made in China by Giant Bicycles Corp

A number of GSs have engines, frames and wheels all from China .
Many components of almost every bike originates in China .
Your stereotyping of a country is rather sad and just a bit outdated
Your fucking stupid , you have no idea what bikes i have and if you think the threat from China is outdated then your more then stupid you a fucking idiot (no offence)
Erm, you’ve just said 4 BMW’s. By running those, you’re giving the chinks nearly as much money. You’re just paying twice as much for it.
I don’t think there’s a need for swearing.
I suspect wisdom has always chased you, but you’ve always been swifter.
Let me guess . I reckon something like an R60, R90 and R100. Probably miles out , as I’m fucking stupid .

Must be Airheads then, later Oilhead 1100 and 1150 GS wheels were Behr and made in W.Germany - 20-30 years ago
Modern Akront wheels on Triumphs etc are owned by Morad and not sure if the modern Akronts are European made now
However most stuff is nowadays and it's virtually impossible to buy everyday stuff made in EU and GB

That explains the problem Triumph is having with broken spokes then
Well yes and no. For example Bosch high end car injectors are made in France and Israel. Small runs. But they also make other parts in China. There are parallel production lines (less tolerance, different material, Allibaba gear) which end in the EU and are copies of OE. Doesn't matter how you twist it, even if you purchase a BMW which was made in Germany part of the cash will end up in China. Even some of the Japanese stuff is made there.
Now the chaps supporting the CCP-Voge... all the cash goes to the Voge/CCP. Doesn't give a shit about morals or ethics. Probably impartial to brand or status.
This customer base is cash driven. They will eat a turd if the review is positive. But who are you or me to judge?
I just purchased a silver Art Deco egg cup holder made in 1920 England. Because the one made in China of the same period cost the price of a fucking Voge. Strange isn't it?
11 pager, interesting reading. One guy lost one spoke after 200 miles on a bike from new, didn't go off road. Don't understand what is the benefit of spoke if you don't go off road? Just the looks?That explains the problem Triumph is having with broken spokes then

Yep - just the looks really - my Scrambler has the same wheels but not lost any spokes so far
Your what is stupid?
Think he’s popped out for a Chinese takeout
So if you're wearing a twat suit to go with your awesome steed, where would that clothing have been manufactured.....sweat shops, machine shops...same thing
