I haven't seen a raw frame yet, and no one in this thread has answered my question about whether the frame is a one-piece mould.
However, if it isn't, a raw UD finish might not look that great at the intersections.

It looks really good. Definitely up there with the best looking framesets like the Scott Foil.
Also much better looking than the XMCS, but I personally prefer the XMCS geometry + handlebar.

Got 2 questions though:
1. This is not a one-piece mold, right?
2. When are the first orders expected to be delivered roughly (regarding first reviews)?

VAT gets deducted afterwards.

What happens when you return an item now?
Do you receive the full amount incl. the new custom charge?

Any news on the new gravel handlebars with rise? Will they be at Eurobike?
Has the computer mount situation been figured out?

Hi! We are both based in Xiamen, but we have no formal affiliation or common connections. We’re two separate operations focusing on our own R&D paths.
I was asking, because a week ago a thread "BladeX Wheels (Xiamen)" was created by the account @ZenCarbonBike, but got quickly renamed and deleted.
Must be a coincidence.

You can't do wrong copying S5 geometry. That's an excellent bike
The 73° STA of the S5 is measured at stack height.
With a normal seat height it's a lot steeper effectively (> 74°).

Mira looks insane. Such a shame it has a slack 73° STA.

Right! I didn't even looked at OP's handlebar, because I thought it's this one: https://aliexpress.com/item/1005005119169438.html
But as it turns out, this one is also slightly different. Quite confusing. They all look similar to the aerover, but none are 1:1 clones.

To make it even more confusing, I've also found these:

The bars also sold under the HUDUD brand (known for their light titanium cranks).
They even offer custom color options: https://aliexpress.com/item/1005010538435885.html
You can pick any color and the topcap can also be painted. I'm thinking about placing an order because I want a silver bar.

Component Deals & Selection / Re: 11.11 What did you get?

I also received mine last week: 1370g for the 40mm/XDR version, but they are actually 45mm deep. Every other measurement is spot on. Very impressed.
If they ride well and stay true for a couple of rides, I might order another set, because they are still unbeatable cheap even without black friday / 11.11 discounts.
