anyone have had experiences with this frame? I'm looking for a super-cheap frame where to install all the leftovers i have in the garage and build a city/commuting bike. I'd go for the TA version, also because it has 142mm OLD and I have the 27,5 wheelset like that. then in also need the fork, rigid.
any comment appreciated

Earlier this year I built up an aluminum gravel bike (Seaboard) from Ali and it’s been great. That’s a great price too.

I'd like the seaboard CT1 as well, but it's twice the cost and i don't think it's worth it honestly.

I got the GR02 from Tsunami and it’s been pretty solid.
