About to pull the trigger on the same frame with the Boost specs from pro-mance. I could only find pro-mance and Yishun making this in Boost with the brake mounted in the chainstay.

That surprises me.  I was under the impression that the rear end with the chain stay mounted brake was 142x12 only.  I thought they only had the boost spacing option on the seat stay mounted rear end.

If I were you, I'd be triple checking this.  E.g. get them to take a photo of the rear end before they send it.

I did triple check it, and got the cad drawings to backup. Even asked the seller 3 different ways.
The frame is the same as a brand frame out there and on their website it shows the brake mounted in the chainstay.

Nice. 

It sounds like you know how to deal with those kind of vendors.

Yep and when they are unable to answer I walk away as many times there is a language barrier.  This is the 7th frame I build.
Also learn to lower my expectations :P

Wow! Did the derailleur hit something or the cage just failed by itself?

Why are you selling? Do you have another frame in mind that better suits your riding style (just curious).

Tom, what headset are you using ?
