    The factory in Chongqing is a good example of a well-run legitimate factory. In my industry (motorcycle apparel), Made-In-China gear still carries a marketing stigma, but, I've been saying this for ages, so long as the factory in China adheres to strict quality controls, the factory will put out excellent products. Some factories in China are high-end all around.

      @Raez_XL 5 лет назад +1

      I know right? That's why i buy stuff like knee guards and elbow guards from China. The quality ain't bad and its from a legit factory too. But best of all, it costs 1/5 of an Alpinestars or Dainese.

      Unfortunately they don't know the first thing about metallurgy or motorcycle design. The Chinese made motorcycles we get in Australia are basically landfill, cheaply made disposable rubbish. One of the problems facing the Chinese motorcycle industry is there are a million companies and none of them are around for very long. If you buy a secondhand Chinese made bike it will be almost impossible to buy parts for and believe me you'll need parts. I've had cheese that's harder than the metals they make these things out of.

      @Dave WA I can tell ya they were junk but yeah that bike factory is betting on cheap people. My bro just wanted something cheap to ride with his kids. It's a weird bike, all I can say is it is lacking in every category.

    • @2WheelsGood.01
      @2WheelsGood.01 4 года назад

      The factory workers are experts at their craft. The issue is when Western companies to to get stuff as cheap as humanly possible. The issue is the ridiculous pricing...not Chinese workers and factories.
      I work a few months a year in China with factories.

      @TheModulaor 7 лет назад +7

      Really?!?!?!? Its a Regional Variation Accent Not a Foreign language!! Lol!! U could of turned the 'English' Auto-Generated Subtitles on i suppose if u was really finding our Guy really hard to follow although when i have tried these on videos with poor audio in the past they tend to generate words that are totally wrong as 'it/the system' also does not understand it, Lol!! So yea i guess either way u cant win so all i can suggest is that u try and Listen Better (open ur ears an mind to new things, regional accents in this case, lol) and More Intensely!! Hope this helps!! :)
