This thread is REALLY f**king annoying. Damon, you're clearly being a complete penis. You broke a proto frame which you asked them to make lighter than they thought sensible, and sold a backup they gave you because they knew it would break. Then you showed it all over the internet in a comical manner. I think the chaps from marino are doing a sound job, making insanely cheap frames with limitless custom options. I think it's great, and with a bit of development, they could be REALLY good. Give the guys a break, and perhaps instead of embarrasing your sponsor with pics of their broken frames, why not make a vid of you riding their bikes?
