Deadbolt more X-Metal than Madman?

[Ti man]

I have since replaced my original pair. But they aren't worn often. My original pair had the finish flake off. Then the hinge broke.

Boo.

Like I said,

It's a shame. Titanium, flex couplers, and the regular x metal hinges would have made them worth the original asking price, and a kickass pair.

There’s also scientific measurements to what makes something metal LOL

The madman and badman was made with just as much, if not more, plastic than metal

Almost looks like a Carbon R1 with the lighting and angles - would have been a sweet OEM colorway.

Both have similar forms but the Deadbolt is made of Titanium and the Madman is not. Do you consider the Deadbolt more X-Metal than the Madman?

Nope. X-Metal is more than the use of titanium, the wearable art is one of them and also the attempt to make it lighter even it is made by metal and much more than words can explain.

Madman being designed like an art and to be honest it is light and comfortable to wear makes it more than the Deadbolt model.

Is it a X-Metal? Officially yes but in "spirit" it has its shortcomings.

But I'm happy to own the Madman.

That was 20 year old technology. Maybe they can come up with a whole new concept with today’s technology? They killed it with their Prizm technology. Now is the time for some new killer frame technology!

If that happens? They sell ot for 2k each

Although I have to say that I can’t really talk, especially after @Cutch22 busted me for mislabelling my X-squared for an XX.
