Nick Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 South African made? South African company but the products are manufactured in the East.
KingTJ Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Exactly. Proudly South African brand.My bad, i was under the impression they are South african made...as they hail from cape town, if im right. But like most things bicycle nowadays...it was foolish to think it is not made in the east. My apologies for the fake news.
Lyne Components Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Hey guys Thanks for the positive feedback. We'll continue trying our best to keep our prices as competitive as possible and also to provide the best support for the products we sell! About manufacture, Currently all of our components are made in Taiwan and nothing comes from China. Taiwan is fast becoming the new Japan in terms of quality and manufacturing ability. We are open about this as we feel its beneficial for customers to understand the difference. Cheers
Ferro Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Just saw that the Lyne V2 external has a stationery cable fixed to the post. From (bad) experience with the Giant droppers, i think this is a big improvement as I had problems with the cable being fixed to the head of the dropper. I think i will give the Lyne a go soon.

CheersMmm well this is only for general interest, but something to test the hub's knowledge: Is Taiwan part of China? [emoji41]

Cava Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Mmm well this is only for general interest, but something to test the hub's knowledge: Is Taiwan part of China? [emoji41] DIRCO will be at your door shortly to explain the One China policy. Our Chinese masters do not tolerate those kind of questions.
Dullscalpel Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Mmm well this is only for general interest, but something to test the hub's knowledge: Is Taiwan part of China? [emoji41] It depends on who's side you are on wait until Friday
Jewbacca Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Unclear. The short answer is de facto, separate, but in terms of formal recognition by other governments, part of China. Both the ROC and PRC governments claim that they govern all of China (including both the mainland and Taiwan,) but the ROC only controls Taiwan and the PRC only controls mainland China.
