Chrome, the Qingqi's are far easier to maneuver--we know the factory, it's the "brands" around the world who deny the Chinese connection

I think that whoever makes the CCM/Pitster/Puzey bikes, and assuming they are a seperate company, do get some of their parts from Galaxy.

Puzey does describe itself as an OEM, so might have an interest in a small factory that they use almost exclusively to build their bikes to their specs; however they can't do it all, so get some parts from others.

I don't know, just speculating. I bet Carl, or someone in China, could answer the independent factory theory...
