^^Remember that part in the Dark Knight when Harvey Dent grabbed the gun away from the guy in court?
Well, it was a carbon fiber gun that was made in China. It also didn't work.
I'm guessing the guy from performance bought one of the many chinese carbon fiber frames that are listed on ebay.
Here is a more expensive example of one, although most have the option of giving a best offer...

The moral of this story is, would you really trust riding a Chinese made carbon frame that was being shipped from Hong Kong? Unless of course you enjoy carbon splinters up your arse.
These are bikes that failed from reputable companies:
