My 2002 LeMond Tourmalet was built in the USA.

I believe all LeMond bikes are made in the USA, but I am not positive.

Steel and Ti are made here. I believe aluminum is not.

Depends upon the model. All steel, as well as all steel/carbon & ti/carbon
frames, are made in Waterloo, WI. The less-expensive aluminum models use
frames that are built overseas and usually assembled & painted in Wisconsin.
The least-expensive models are built entirely overseas.

Mike, can you be specific, model wise?

And, did you see the thread in misc, that talks of Trek discontinuing
the LeMond brand? To be replaced with an Armstrong badged bike.

I would be surprised if they ended the LeMond line, as it appears
quite successful.
