Little/little ? Shame on you  You never ride you bike little/little. You use the granny only for climbing. And in little/little you're not climbing 

I don't think the matte clear coat is a problem ...

Sorry to hear this (again).

I had the same problem. They sent me the wrong wheel set, it was not what I ordered.
They offered me to buy a new set and sell the wrong wheel set on my own. No way I agreed that.

It was not a option for them to let me sent the wheel set back, because of the customs in China, costs 120 USD. And they won't pay me my shipping costs and my second payment to the Dutch customs.

So, after some communication on the email about their fault, costs for them, cost for me, no time to wait again (because my bike trip in Germany),  etc etc, we came to a solution that was fine for both of us. I ordered a new wheel set with enough discount to my satisfaction. So, now I have laying a spare wheel set.

I've learned that the warranty / service in China isn't that great as we have over here.
The profit is low, the cost (shipping, custom, paypal) are high.
So, if you want really good service, the same as at the LBS, don't buy in China, but at your LBS and pay a lot more.

They don't realize that they can have much more business if the give good service in case of warranty or manufacturing faults.

Really awesome bike!

About the seat post: use hair spray to make your seat post a little bit thicker. I had the same problem and this with carbon paste solved it for me and it hold now for months.

Today, our friend from XmiPlay, Peter Que, contacted me on skype with some really nice picture of their fatbike. It's for a customer in New Zealand.

I asked Peter about the chainline. It was all good. He don't have a picture of the chaineline. Because the bike is already disassembled, he will make a picture of the chainline next time.

Please pay some attention to the nice and professional cable holes!



And here a picture of Peter and the bike. (now we have a face with the name )

..., insert your valve stem, assemble your tire bead on one side, add your sealant, install the bead on the other side, inflate (easiest to inflate using an air compressor), shake the wheel horizontally to make sure the sealant covers the bead and tire sidewall.  If you lose most of the air before the tire seals, add more air and shake more.  Repeat as needed.

I can open my valve to put the sealant through the valve. That makes it a lot easier.

I put on the tire (both sides), fill it with a lot of air at ones, to let the tire pop on (with a popping sound), when the tire is settled, I let go the air, put in the sealant though the valve. Fill it again with a lot of air. And then shake it to seal the tire. Leave it for a couple of hours, shake it again. And hopefully it's completely sealed. Repeat it until it's sealed.

  The power stops are probably good to get a feel for just how hard I can brake before going over the bars.

With the right (basic) technique you'll never going over your bars, no matter how hard you using your brakes.

Couldn't hear anything on your video, so, my answer is based on your text.

I got a second monitor for my laptop and used HDMI, that's why I couldn't hear anything.

Now I've heard the sound, I stay with my answer.

Thanks guys-  I knew I had seen some posts on here before about the web saddles, but couldn't find them. Are they all the same?  For around $10 for the web saddles or $25 for the full composite ones it won't hurt to just try one, but if there is a 'better' version out there I'd like to get it.

I bought this spider saddle with the thoughts "for this money, it won't stay long". After four month and 800 km, I've still the same saddle.
But a saddle is personal. Not everybody have got the same ass (sit bones).
