No lol. But this is par for the course. It's been a month out for like 6 months at this point.

WinowCycle store on AliExpress which is tied to Haideli I think shows an estimate delivery of 06 september at the moment.

On WinowCycle I have 19th of August expected delivery to my door (Italy). Anyway, it would be nice to have a clarification from Haideli about real shipping date. I can wait, but I don't like the attitude to add 15 days every 15 days. If they say September, I'm ok with that.

Has anyone tried a coil on this frame? 

To those who've already built one with an air shock, would you say the shock feels progressive or linear?

The suspension kinematics should be similar to a 2018-2021 SC Bronson which also used a 210x55 shock. Not everyone is happy with the stock SC shock tunes but they’re generally Low damping and about 2/3 of the way to a max volume spacer (2.5 tokens on the Super Deluxe, 0.4 or 0.6 spacer on a Fox shock).

So if I understand correctly: a little bit on the progressive side, to help compensate for the curved regression of the VPP system. But overall leverage is reasonable so you probably don’t want stock aftermarket Medium damping.

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

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

The engineers are not very thorough. Check my analysis here: http://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,3172.msg32493.html#msg32493
