Mine is finally assembled, everything was done very easily, this is the first time that I have really had no problem assembling a bike.  I will take some photos today to present the bike to you, even if it is nothing extraordinary.  I find it beautiful despite everything!
great, do give specs too....

I can also tell you ive had a terrible experience with tantan/winow/seraph( all the same company) and heideli/tidace.
I find the negatives to be a better basis than the positives because it often points to the issues the manufacturer has than the personal preferences that make the bikes nice.

One of the best pieces advice I saw somewhere was to pick a frame from a brand that would put their brand name on the frame (as opposed to a knock off of some other frame without branding). I went with the Lexon Riot 10 for what it is worth, you can see my posts in that thread as I went through the research, to purchase, to build journey.  Lexon brands the frame, although I went with the matte black and no Lexon branding, additionally the frame is used by a pro XC rider, Eva Lechner.  If it is good enough for her, I figured it was more than good enough for me as a middle of the pack finisher in CAT 2.

Good luck and enjoy the journey.
 
Thank you for the write up, Lexon is one of my current considerations atm but it doesn't have the geometry I want. BXT which also brands their frames seems to be getting occasional bad feedbacks but has that geometry I like. Also from some feedback it sounds like BXT is a lower tier manufacturer which I want to confirm if there such a thing as ranking or tiers.
Hambini reviewed several chinese frames and gave his thumbs up so I want to know which ones to avoid....

With so much manufacturers coming from China, Which ones are good, decent and bad?
Is there such a list where certain brands are better or tested to be good...
Do you have a top 3 brand from china that you can recommend?
I actually would like to know also which ones you recommend to stay away from...

I did order two M29 from Haideli, 69ºHA and 425mm chainstay in size M.
With a more reasonable and usual price for a HT: $350, then with accessories, paint and shipping to Europe at about $1400 for both.
How are your bikes coming along? hoping for some feedback....
Cheers

I think the upper port on the left side allows also to pass the dropper hose.

Sorry for my poor english.
I think that is for the brakes and rear derailleur.

We have ordered two Spcycle Model SP-M05.

https://a.aliexpress.com/_mq6BMBS
That was one of my choices as well... I like the bottom bracket being threaded against the press fit one but I already have a seatpost and dropper post that is 31.6mm. Plus that frame has no port for an internal dropper post.
As for the geometry, the fork length changes the head angle and using 120mm would put me at the same 68.5 degrees.
Thank you but I do look forward to your pictures and review please.
