Does anyone here have any experience with a Crux 5 clone from China?
I'm just asking to make sure there aren't any problems like the ones with the Epic's bottom bracket.
Which retailers would you recommend?

There are clones of Crux 5? A friend of mine was interested in a similar looking frame

Yes, there are some shops, which offer such frames. For example this one:

I'm also surprised that there's nothing about it here on the forum.

Taiwan Bike have it on AliExpress but it's not cheap.

Starting to see geometric copies now of the Roval Terra integrated bars too that look good from Kocevlo and Ullicyc. Extra weight and likely without the designed compliance but price is appealing and spacers available for standard 52 bearing frames.

I had a contact with a company who tried to sell a copy, search "CURX 5" on Ali to find it (it does not appear anymore for my country). I might be able to share the WhatsApp of the contact I had. It was sold for 700€
