JD™ Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 If you put up a picture of my frame before I decide that I want people to see it, I will personally hunt you down and insert the fully built bike into you. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 hey guys,its ok. i thought you all were happy with seeing the progress. to avoid painful penetrations with bicycle parts i wont post anything . sorry if i offended anyone. I definitely like seeing the progress, but I'm paying Marino for that - if he's sending you pictures then he should be sending me pictures of my frame, simple. Clearly you're not trying to offend anyone, so don't worry about it - it's just that there's some things about my frame that I don't want people to see until it's built up.

isitafox Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 It's that headtube cutout shaped like a gentlemans sausage isn't it JD? EDIT: Obviously great minds think alike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Nah, it's nothing that 'special' to the point where it's not really worth pretending it is - but the idea of a custom frame is that you're getting something no-one else has and I'd prefer that I saw it first... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamilyBiker Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) youre right. i just wanted to offer this. i told marino not to send me any pics of any frame but mine. btw mines the one showing from the side. i dont care if anybody gets to see my frame,copy it,print it and put it on the wall in your sleeping room,or wipe yourself clean with the pic. for me it just counts to get it built Edited December 3, 2012 by FamilyBiker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali C Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 head tube gusset is overkill, but the rest of it and the colour is sweet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Pretty certain I won't be ordering from Marino again. His communication is shit, and there is no excuse for taking this long when my last one took about 2 weeks start to finish. I'm not even in a rush, but it takes the piss not to even give an estimate of when it'll be finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamilyBiker Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) asked him bout that,we´ll see what hes about regarding this and for the gusset ali:wanted a frame that lasts(its mild steel) and voila,its third year now haha.

isitafox Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 He said to me when I was emailing him originally that once I gave my deposit he'd start building and send some progress pics at the end of the week, that was on 13th November and I've not heard anything since. Emailed him on the 28th November as well to see how it was coming along and also enquiring about some forks but still nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a good service if you have to wait so long and its run Badly, He might do a good job and the price is right but the waiting time is silly. If he is this busy he needs more people helping him.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
