I guess it's subjective, but all else equal, between ordering from Alix and from Peter, I'll always order from Peter because with him, you spoke to a human, you're not just an order number.
I find it very brave to use Alix for frames, given most of the sellers there have the worst reputations (airwolf, all of the fakes, winow that's not exactly world class, and so on).

Mine climbs like a dream. Weight 8.5kg is good for a gravel bike.

I know you try to shill Peter hard everywhere but lets not make a comedy out of it with false claims like that

I did message him regarding one of his frames, but I didn't find his pricing was competitive for what I was looking for. Plus I was quoted additional costs for added components that come included with other sellers. Also I'm starting to find really solid vendors on AliExpress. For example 80 Design Store and Easedon Wheels have been great to work with. AliEx has direct messaging, I don't see how there's no direct customer interaction?

It is really rediculous, I don't know where the shilling comes from, guys, please check my registered date on this forum, and check the early threads in the vendor discussion & reviews section, and you also can see "More reviews on our products chinertown.com " buttom at the top right of our website, maybe you don't know how this chinertown forum came, you can see earliest posts here, even more posts in "Chinese carbon 29er" and "Chinese Carbon fatty"on MTBR, Peter always just cares about the products quality and service. You guys sent inquiries or asked questions to me, if I didn't reply, I'm so sorry, to you several guys, but no matter PM or email, even just post a question asking me, I replied all of them, right ? Or did I compel you guys to buy stuff from me?  No offence.
