Rock Racing Frames - "Made in Italy" - Go on: prove it.

Made in Italy just means at least 50% of its value was generated in Italy.
In other words, frame came from Guangdong province in China, was painted in Italy, therefore they define it as "Made in Italy.'

Absolutely stupid and ridiculous.

I believe them :D so where's the proof they are not :?

Maybe if we start seeing them on E-bay from the chinarello sellers I'll start to believe that they're not Italian. For what its worth, its says Italian so giving them the benefit for now.

Not for a second. Pinarello says "Made in Italy". They're made by Carbotec in Taiwan.
