Thinking about ordering the frame, will definitely make a post about it. Anybody knows if I should do a bikefitting before?

It's your money but I would strongly advise against buying a counterfeit frame. You are on a Chinese bike forum, surely there is another frame here that meets your needs without going down the counterfeit path.

Why?
because they didn't paint the metal ring on bb from their frames as original frame do. i have two frames for yoho and in this place is unpaint for better fit . screw are diffent amd the hole for fd has no so good finish. also sticker emirates isn't the same as original. for sure frame in photos is from yoho

Uhhhh, the BB sleeve is never painted, that would be atrocious for fitting the BB. The OG does not have this.

Has anyone here bought this model?

I am planning to build one but I got turned off due to a video by OZ Cycles who featured a replica Cervelo S5 with such poor bottom bracket and some other issues. For sure that frame also came from the same factory where all these replica bikes are coming from. Scary scary video, unless someone does a preview on youtube and then builds one. In asian instagram I see a lot of sketchy builds but I couldnt judge whether or not they are using replica frames but my guy feeling says so heheh

Yes also saw the video. Would like to know where it had been bought, however at the end he said the bike feels and rides great.

Yeah I wouldn't rule it out without some buyer reviews. But as a home mechanic, those bayonet steerers scare me - rep or not.

What is so scary about the bayonet steerers? After the headset issues I've had with my current frame I feel like I would be more confident in the clamping force vs my current headset that comes loose and then I can feel it move when I brake.

I think that is just a fear of the unknown. It is a bit trickier to put it together, but nothing extra hard imho.

For me a picture of the front width and rear width would be interesting. On AliX there were some frames with area under the seat clamping to the rear triangle that were way thicker than the original. I personally love the slim silhouette. That would be a criteria for me.

But or and: the pics on Yoho Bikes you can detect their frame vs pics of the original Colnago one when it comes to the front. The bajonett fork is at the soho bike 2 parts, vs a single part fork on the colnago. See pics attached. That 2 part thing is a bajonett solution used in the cervelo s5 until 2022 or something. I wouldn't mind about that much. But I want to have this second part in the same color as the fork.

I also thought first, however did some digging and it seems there is an old version of original y1rs with 2 parts. In the video you see it in the sunshine.

It seems like no one around here dared to buy this frameset...
