I had a quick Google of the frame 156 and found the exact problem on this thread:

http://forums.mtbr.com/27-5/chinese-carbon-frames-650b-edition-820784-11.html

Search 156 or post #1092.

Some responses:
" I am running Shimano xt's. no fitment issues at all".
" I did find the single piston Magura MT6 does fit. I also contacted the product manager at ICAN cycles and he let me know the Shimano BR-M615 will also fit"

I have asked Peter for his help and he initially responded to my emails, but these past 2 weeks he has been silent.  I have requested if he could ask his design engineers about what specific brake calipers should be used or if Peter can send me some pictures of a completed bike with brakes.  Peter hasn't sent me any information.  He told me to ask on Chinertown and on MTBr forums. 

My Impression of Peter was that he was honest, but his recent actions are painting a different picture.  :( All I want is his assistance to find the correct resolution.  As of right now it appears there is a design flaw in my specific frame.

Thank you Gareth79!  I will look into that caliper.  I still am waiting for Peter and his design engineers to inform me on the specific brand(s)/type(s) they know will fit their frame.  I sure hope Peter comes through!

My kid uses this frame from Shenzen though and have no problems with Shimano namely slx/xt 2 pots calipers. His frame is even smaller as its a 26er in 15.5in size.

I finally found a brake caliper that fits through much trial and error.  Finding a caliper that fits on this frame should have been made easier by Peter and his design engineers.   :(

Any chance you can post a link, details or description to make it easier for those coming after you?
