For example, more than 70 % of the gear changers for middle and low-end American bikes are provided by Taiwan suppliers, with exports reaching 10 million sets a year. A look at the number seems to be glorious, but for the really high-grade stuff the only choice is Japan, and high-quality gear controls must be imported from that country.
例如美國中低級自行車的變速器，百分之七十以上由國內廠商供應，每年出口量可達一千萬套，看數字是非常風光，但真要做高級品，則還是脫不了日本的箝制，要從日本進口高性能的變速器。
