Alright, fuck it. I'm going to pull the trigger.

Like BBR, don't expect anything fast. I'm ordering it raw with no clear coat - so that's going to take some time too even after I get it.

I'd seriously let them iron out the quality issues.
Till now they have not sent my replacement link.

And i think those in the NA or europe will need to fork out more due to the trade war.

Linkage machining which leads to bearing being pressed in either too deep or pressed too hard and this pits the bearing.

And Some other  aligment issues which i had to use 1 mm washer to fill the gaps.

Not sure if the engineers are amatuers/newbies...

Hi guys, topfire is accepting new orders rn. Any of you received the frame recently? And if yes, were the kinks fixed?

So far I'm only aware of BBR and myself actually having ordered these things, and they're the only one who's received one. I think it'll still be a long time before mine shows up!
