How much money do you have?
You gained a light weight object which is strong for its materials and
construction. But it has its limitations. The manufacturer has given
you directions, specific directions. This is why the acronym:
RTFM
where "F" doesn't mean "Fine." It does mean "****ing". And that's
always the potential. You traded weight for certain durability. That's
what trade-offs are all about. Does the term "Void warranty" mean
anything?
It's an adult, not kids, object. Just like down sleeping bags, gas
camps stoves, and highly tuned racing bikes which one doesn't ride over
curbs unlike Mountain Bikes which is why Mountain Bikes are created
(as a durability back lash).
Stuff comes with maintenance.
