Pretty sure the "full T1000" is an outright lie, but other than that, looks very nice.

You find also an InstaReel from Viviantian about the Frame https://www.instagram.com/share/BAM9V1fpsq

1Love they always say superlight lol at 1037g +/- 40g!  Think it looks ok but always better when you get to see fully built

I really think they should stop calling everything Super light / ligthweight when it isn't. I mean, for a full out aero frame it is not bad, but superlight is not what it is. Furthermore, the weigth is mentioned for the babysize triple xs. Average size (52 / 54 / 56) will be a bit heavier, making it go to 1100/1200gr probably. [edit] fair enough, as pointed out below, size S is closer to 52, not that small, but still not lightweight by any means [/edit]

The seatpost/sadle clamp looks different. Not sure whether I like that, but visually better than the TT-style sliding rail (like the x38 foil-clones).

Beautiful frame. Looks very similar to the Winspace C5 Aero. However, it has minimal differences in geometry.

The advertised weight is for size 50/M, which is a closer to traditional size S/52

That seatpost is just unnecessary, just make a simple 0 offset 2 bolt, idk why they're making it so bulky and complicated. Rear end came straight from bross zenith but that's fine. Bb area should be deeper for an aero bike. Fork design and integration leaves much to be desired compared to big brands, but I guess it's pretty good for a cheap, unbranded frame with limited development. Probably one of the better cheap aero bikes, we're starting to get somewhere

I'd actually prefer the look of the X67 if it lost the stupid channels on top of the seatstay connection. This makes it look like they are just trying to copy the seka spear but only had 2 minutes to come up with the design.

Touché, I take that back. Rest still stands :)

That price makes no sense

-The bottom bracket and downtube design of their X38 (Scott Foil clone)
-Seatpost/clamp design of their X34 (Trek Madone clone)
-Channeled seatstays and fork resembling some other brand I'm sure.

Overall it looks like the sum of all leftover design elements bonded together. Not a bad looking frame however.

Doesn't include handlebar likely so pushes price down a bit. Plus u add paint and shipping

If this makes its way to an outfit that does a good job with paint (Tideace?) I'd definitely consider this.  Nice looking frame.

Is there any chance of getting pictures of an assembled frame in size M (50)?

Near zero, I think its a too small time window, not even one frame shipped yet i think

Would love to see a picture of the headtube front on.
Together with some eye-balling of the deepness of tubes it is the best estimator we have of aero-performance of these really low budget frames (imho).
