Where are the new Ibis frames manufactured?
A small producer makes the raw frames in a factory in Shenzhen, China. They are in an area where much of today’s carbon manufacturing is coming from (Kestrel, Specialized, Colnago, Scott, Cervelo, Trek, Merlin, Orbea, Felt, Ridley and a bunch more for that matter). The owner of the company has a PhD in composites and has done a lot of work for both universities and the Taiwan government. We do all the development here, the design, FEA, engineering and testing. We have over 1800 hours of CAD time into the Mojo alone. The forged parts come from a well-known fabricator in Taiwan. They also make the cases for iPods, Macbooks and iPhones. No, we can’t help you get Apple stuff cheap.
