If i was a kid looking to buy a GT performer in the UK back in 85 what would the chances be that the frame and forks would be US made rather than Tiawaneese?

Where the US made frames just sold in the US?

mine was us made, but you wouldn't be allowed one anyway, and you know why

I reckon:

If you (or the shop) bought a frame & fork set and had it built into a complete bike, chances are it would be US made.

If you bought a complete 'factory' GT chances are it may have been Tiawanese.
