They don’t mention anything anywhere that it’s a udh. Although their support confirmed that it has a udh and it looks like a udh from pictures, but I figured I’d ask someone who owns it to confirm. I already have 13s sram components.
have it and can confirm its udh

Hi, I have my velobuild with the original extensions, and I bought the winow... now I have to buy the angled plate because winow extenions are flat. The original ones have some angle. Do you or anyone know the angle that the original ones have?

i believe they are 15 deg

just received mine and it has a dimple on the drive side chain stay. Can’t tell if it’s normal or not. For those that have the frame, is the dimple there normal?

why f-c don't send with dpd? Has anyone from Europe bought one? did he pay taxes?

am also trying to find a seller of the tier 3 quality that will ship to EU. Seems like only Taiwan eisen ships to EU via dpd. Did you end up finding something?

received the same ones a month ago so im wondering if this is the showpiece frame and quality normally is below this -- im still trying to figure out how the general quality of this store's stock is ... they sell quite a few replica frames but i have not found definitive / first hand reviews in terms of quality

That sounds very suspicious. There are clearly at least two different types of Factor frames in this thread. One EPS molded with very smooth inside and the other one which looks a bit more rugged inside (I think it was from taiwan factory bike parts Store). I am not saying one is worse/dangerous whatever, but I find the statement above hard to believe.

Is that the same store as taiwan eisen?

the prices do seem better at Taiwan Eisen but they told me there is only a single t1100 eps tier ... if i remember correctly there were already a couple of purchases from this store (v1 ostro and sl8) and quality was inferior to F-C?

I was looking for 30 external as well albeit disc variant and ended up with farsports hyper series. not sure if they do a rim brake version but maybe give them a shout

have decided on farsports in the end with a 58R/50F combo. contacted them via Whatsapp on the number thats linked on the oem site. as this is my first time buying, can anyone tell me how it works? do i pay first (seems like i can do bank transfer or paypal -- which is better?) any other tips? thanks!
