	Hello, I'm kind of new to the whole cycling scene and I was looking at new road bikes. I recently tried the Giant OCR-1, and really loved it, however I've been shopping around and most places dont seem to carry the giants here. Is there anything to be warry of with Giant Bicycles, I was told they were the biggest manufacturer of bicycles. It bothers me though that most places dont seem to have them, do they break easily or a lot? Any advice you guys could offer would be great

Any advice you guys could offer would be great> When I was looking to step up a notch from my first road bike, a 20+ yr old Fuji 12 speed, I tried to research the components of the various brands. It seemed to me that Giant was pretty reasonably priced in comparison with the other major brands like Trek and Specialized. My local bike shop carries the OCR1 and OCR3 while another one carries basically all the Trek models. It seemed like I had a few more models to choose from with Trek, though there was nothing at all wrong with Giant. Finally, I never could bring myself to pull the trigger and pay full price for the components I thought I wanted, so I wound up getting a nice used bike and getting it fixed up for a total of about $600, reasoning that they're all used after a while anyhow.

Many of the other brands frames are made by Giant for them. They make solid bike and have a goot reputation. I would not hesitate buying one if the fit and price was right. ------------ Alex

Most bikes sold in the USA, especially in the under $2000 price range, are made in a handful of companies in Taiwan and mainland China. That includes pseudo- Italian brand names like Bianchi and Masi. Giant is the biggest of the manufacturers, with large factories in both Taiwan and China.

They don't do 7000 series aluminium bikes they seem to monopolise 6000 series aluminium frame production for resellers like GT. I think their mainland china factories are mainly acquired and are producing mainly steel bikes but this might change or may even have changed already. Merida seem to be the best quality factory for 7000 series frames. Also cheaper manufacturers are abeni and idealbike. Still good quality but not as good as Giant or Merida. Taiwan is struggling to compete at the bottom end of pricing so they are basically moving production to mainland china. Also india and vietnam are starting to compete for oem orders I believe. Not sure if any well regarded brands are using them though. N.American and euro brands are almost exclusively importing most of their bottom end and mid range bikes or frames. There are exceptions like Cannondale though.
