Custom 32er steel frame build while not a Chinese company, Marino bikes out of Peru are in a similar vein and I think they should be highlighted here. 

I recently ordered a custom 32er hard tail frame from them and I am super happy so far with the build process.  I was able to send them a design and they whipped up a cad and sent it back with some clarification questions.  everything from chain stay length to bottle mount placement was an option to change.  once I ordered, it took about a week to be built and is not on its way to me.  The price was amazing at just over $700 for a Reynolds 725 frame with sliding drop-outs and a bunch of bottle mounts.  cant wait for the frame to arrive.  Side note, they are in the same time zones as the US so emailing back and forth is super fast since I don't have to wait for the next day to get a response. 

I will be adding more to this as I receive the frame and build it up.

Hello,
Newbie here. Interested in this frame. Do You have these L size frames in stock?
If I order one now, how long does it take to get it shipped?
No fork, just the frame.

According to the lastest info I have, the frame only option in L size, in black matte finish, is ready to ship. The glossy black takes about 1 week to ship, and other color options should take at least 1 week to ship also...

Oh no... let's not go there. :D

I'm a wrong doer.

I have a Marino steel frame and fork on order and it is going to be an xc bike.
This is going to be a flatbar gravel with pretty short carbon fork.
Allmost all the parts for both bikes are coming from Aliexpress.
Got Koozer hubs at home and carbon rims on the way for the xc, Gravel has Tanke hubs allready, but havent ordered rims yet.
I have Teravail Camrocks for the xc, but havent found skinnier gravel tires yet.


Well, let's say we're on a similar path...  ;)
