I can think of one other option that hasn't been mentioned. That would be a Bike Friday. The bikes are steel and made in the US. However, because they are built to be packed in a suitcase for traveling, they have 20" wheels. The smaller wheel size can help allow the bikes to fit a larger range of sizes. Numerous people on this forum have a Bike Friday including myself. They are great bikes. They also make some of them with a cassette that goes down to a 9t cog which allows for higher gears more comparable to bikes with full size wheels. You might check if there are any dealers in your area or if some pop up on craigslist.
