Except....   Yes, they come with prefilled mineral oil, but my rear hydraulic hose was about 80mm to short, for my bike, so I had to put on a longer hydraulic hose and completely bleed the rear caliper/lever chamber.

I think it is a little strange, that some frames have this hole an the most doesn't. For electrical group set you'll normally need it.
Not the end of the world but still strange, because the say the frame is for mechanical and electrical shifting.

They should do the hole always and provide a rubber grommet zu Close it in case of mechanical shifter.

What did you use to secure the wire?
Couldn't find another solution and used a small piece of black electrical tape.

Do you know what measurements all the rear suspension bearings are?

carbonda is actually working on a new frame, downtube storage is promised. But this superior has nothing to do with carbonda. It’s just that modern frames have finally begun to approach carbonda geometry, which is why they may be visually similar to it

Yes….and
Yes

Pads installed
And both front adapters 160/140 in the box

also all lines filled with mineral oil…

oh wow really also pre filled with mineral oil? I thought i'd need to bleed it myself.

Is there any go to brand for disc brakes from china? I need a 6 hole 140mm disc...

Too heavy, how much does it weight with the carbon rocker link and no paint?

I have had a creak with this frame for months. After re-installing the bottom bracket twice with lots of grease and greasing the linkage bolts it still persists. The main linkage bearings are crunchy already but they seem to be impossible to remove (as if they're glued in). I ended up breaking the bolt that attached the rear shock (see photo). I contacted Airwolf about this and they told me that the bearings should not be removed and that a replacement bolt for the rear shock mount would be $25. I am unable to get the replacement bolt from a local Specialized shop, the only remedy seems to be purchasing a complete hardware kit (https://www.performancebike.com/specialized-epic-evo-suspension-pivot-bolt-kit-black-s200500003/p1237090?gad_source=1)

Overall my experience with this frame and Airwolf has been much worse than expected. The first time I built a bike using a Chinese frame I had great luck, this time the poor quality control has made me rethink ever doing this again.

Got my frame today. All lookig good but i will keep my eye on a small defect at the top headcup. Can be that they didn't sand it down there from the manufactory

Not gonna lie I’d send an email on that. It looks more than just sanding

that's a pretty gangster build for a commuter bike! i especially like the mullet big ring + huge MTB cassette. What group & gearing are you running?
For the bearings, can't help, i'd ask tantan directly

Thank you  :). It was not itended to be a commuter bike. But it is so much fun, that I haven‘t ridden my actual commuter bike in half a year.
It is a SRAM rival AXS groupset (46 chainring) and a GX eagle derailleur (10-52 casette). Works well.

Is the EDS TX coming with pre installed brake pads?

And also: my frame only supports 140mm front and back discs. Will this be compatible with the EDS TX?
