It's possible that its the top "cosmetic" layer that cracked. You can try taking a coin and tap along the tube thats cracked and see if the sound changes. The cracked portion of the frame should have a more dull sound than the area around it that's not cracked.

Glad to see that you'll be getting your money back. Maybe HF will take their customers more seriously from now on.

The geo of the 145 is based off a 506 axle to crown.

How many version of this frame are there? I'm really leaning towards the 058...or a variant of it.

Freeflyer, they have an active purchase link on aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/2018-NEW-Carbon-Fiber-29er-Full-Suspension-Boost-148MM-MTB-Bicycle-Frame-FM258-UD-Matte/32854379761.html?spm=a2g0s.13010208.99999999.263.owRw2U

The reach on the medium is 432mm. That's longer than my trail bike which I run a 40mm stem, but the wheelbase is shorter at 1124 vs the 1166 on my trail bike.
