Just wondered. What does "made" mean in this context? Is it where the frame was made or where the whole thing was assembled? I'd always assumed the former, I don't know why, mainly because that's where the sticker was, but I realise now that that was a bit naive to say the least. But it's not that simple. If they build it from components somewhere, how do those components arrive and where are they made? Do the wheels come in as whole wheels (with the bearings done up too tight and no grease )? Or where they built from hubs up where the sticker says they were done? Love this question and cant wait for some one to answer it ,thanks for posting captslog best wishes Brian.

I'm sure when I was investigating the T3 before purchase I read somewhere they were assembled in France. Of course the accuracy of that source is unknown, especially since I can't find it.

Do Decathlon have assembly lines in all these countries? Or do they collect components from round the world, and assemble them in France? Do these locations refer to the source of the frame? All I need to know is mine came from Thurrock!!

My white T3 says Italy. I read somewhere that they are made by Deda.
