When you ordered this on AliExpress, was it from the twitter factory or the third party company?

It was from the twitter factory - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009829494108.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.105.24b81802JN0CUP
Took about 4 weeks from order to delivery to Norway.

This is the headset i got for it - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005010425796965.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.45.24b81802JN0CUP (A-model)

I don’t have a wheelset for mine yet, but this is what it looks like so far with my road wheels on it;

I’m seeing the same thing on my frame. There is a larger-than-expected gap between the lower bearing and the molded-in crown race, definitely more than what I’m used to seeing on other bikes.

That said, everything seats consistently, rotates smoothly, and there’s no play once the headset is preloaded. Functionally it seems correct, even if it looks a bit unusual.

I put some studded 40mm tires on with no issues (they measure at 40). Seems like 45 mm will fit fine.

Please see the pictures attached:

I hastily ordered mine before the big sales, so in total it cost me 306 usd. That is including taxes (Norway)

Hello! I received my frame today and can confirm that a size L weighs 1,620 g, and the fork comes in at 420 g.

It arrived with thru-axles and a hanger, but no headset, seatpost, or clamp.
The frame itself appears to be of satisfactory quality, but the fork has a few rough edges.
