I have had mine for a little while now. Sample size of 1, but for me it's been solid and im 100kg+, done sprints on it and it didn't crack in half, which is fair enough for me. Ordered it through Seraph website and picked my own paint, can find my thoughts in the thread about that frame.  Note that I specifically picked that frame because it's short and tall, there might be other options.

Nice build. Mind sharing how much you paid for the frameset in total incl. shipping, tax and paint?

was 700 euro about iirc. That also included a bb, tru-axles, headset, and the mount for fenders.
