Really dig both frames, and that fact that I can get both of them shipped for under 300 is amazing. (Total prices - Marv: $275, Cosmotron: $292)

I've wanted the Marv for the longest while, but I just discovered the Cosmotron today and I've fallen in love with it and I'm leaning more towards it now.

Both have features I really like;

Marv has Top and Downtube gussets, steep HT angle, and short back end, also has some sick designs.

And the Cosmotron has a wishbone CS, only one DT gusset but some unique geometry (69 ST angle on a 21.25" frame with a short back end = Very roomy in the front, but stilly snappy at the same time due to short back end)

I am a street rider, I grind a lot, and I also ride some occasional park (skatepark), please help me pick!

I was also wondering if the Cosmotron comes with lifetime warranty? If yes then I'm definitely getting it.

Fits warranty is good, two gussets, Fits are fairly strong. Not really many reasons you'd be good w/ either probs. A few people I know say the Marv is a great frame.

You convinced me, now the real question is, clearcoated raw or black?

I want it in 21" but it only comes in black, 20.75" has a clearcoated raw option, should I just go with that?

I'd get the size you want. If you dont like the color strip or paint the frame.

That's completely true, I feel stupid for asking, but I'm a guy coming from a 20.5" setup, I've just ridden many of my friends' 21"s and it feel amazing. I just want a longer TT, so do you think 20.75 will do or should i stick with 21"?

It's a personal preference thing haha. How tall are you? I ride a 20.7 and like it. I've rode all the sizes and i dont even know which i like best.

5'9 and obviously, but my preference right now is a longer frame, which could be both 20.75" and 21", fuck me i can't make a decision
