I put my order for a GV201 in on Black Friday. Now I'm thinking through my build components. I'm thinking about a wide range 2X setup using Shimano Cues, but the Cues brakes apparently are designed to only work with 160mm rotors and the frame is for 140mm rotors. Usually a brake set comes with  a mount plate that can adapt to either but the Cues does not come with that adapter and I'm not sure if those are standardized or unique to the frame and/or brakes.
You can run 160mm rotors on the GV201.

Just got a LongTeng GV201 and it was 21 days from my initial inquiry to being delivered. Price was the cheapest of all the manufacturers. Dealing with Alisa was great.

I can't really comment on paint quality. I just got clear over raw carbon but it came out looking good and all the brake mounts and bb were faced properly. They did also clear coat the storage box lid to match.

From what I've seen Tideace probably has the best paint quality if you want something fancier.

Just got my Longteng GV201 frame. Currently in process of building it up.

I designed a cover for the front derailleur mount for those going 1x. If you have access to a 3d printer you can make one yourself.
