it almost likes like Light Carbon L018D without the aero but also with the 27.2mm round seatpost and a more relaxed head angle.

Check out Mondince thread, it's the same frame and a couple of people posted their g026 there

None as far as i know - but this is an Open mold frame, which means the same design is avaliable from plenty of manufacturers. (like many sp-cycle frame models, but not all!)

Is there an advantage in choosing one over the other seller?
Is price the same? Customer support? Paint quality?

do u know who makes these "open mold" designs?  Could it be that neither Mondince nor SP-cycle actually owns a factory but they are just sourcing from the same factory who provides these "open molds"?

In the Mondince thread, the biggest difference I noticed is what is included by the vendor and at which price.
Mondice for instance had the headset, bag and seatpost and seatpost mud protection included, paint job was 55 USD for any design you could imagine.

That might explain the price differences between some vendors, I cannot really compare the quality

I have just build up my Mondince F316, and Jack from Mondince was kind to include an extra storage bag, a spacer for 160 mm front rotor, and headset, spacere and a lot of spares, like additional clams for the saddel and for oval saddel. I had a mechanic friend build it up, and he said that the "spares" included was great a several extras. So just wanted to share my experience. I just had my first ride on it yesterday, 32 km i really muddy conditions (as the snow just have left Denmark in the past weekend). But first impression is great

You can reach Jack Ding on info@mondincecycle.com, and say hello from me (Rasmus Ebbesen), I'm sure he will give you a good price
