Unfortunately I didn’t, they still haven’t respond basically getting ghosted by them.  There’s another review on AliExpress about their store saying basically to avoid them because their customer service sucks.  Adding another image to show that their drop out seats look like they were hand carved with a knife, I might try and sand it down and see if that helps.

Hey guys I have now probably 500 or more miles on my airwolf and one of the first things I've found is that I have a dreaded creak from the rear axle.  The molding on the dropouts on mine is pretty poor and the axle cap doesn't sit flush.  This has lead the tire to sitting off center in the frame.  I've contacted them about getting a new frame but their customer service on ali express is bad.  The take forever to respond and seem to be just avoiding me at this time.  I sent the many photos and videos as well. I let you know how it turns out and try and upload some photos.

Just throwing up another photo. Put about 40 miles so far in it.  I like it, rides like a bike.  ;)

Yes there is an inlet on the head tube, there are 2 on each side.  I actually ran a full piece of cable housing to the rear derailleur and snuck it over the bb.

It’s the airwolf store in AliExpress, I think they also have a store on eBay, I would check prices on both.

I don’t have any concerned about the damage on the inside of the head tube.  The top bearing still seats fine and has a slot contact with the frame.  I sent them the photos of the damage hoping they would just send me another frame so I could have one on deck incase this one fails.  They were reassuring that if anything happens to contact them.

Yea I had great contact with the seller from AliExpress, really easy to text exchange.  Got a ride in today and it was great. My only other previous hardtail is a niner one 9 rdo.  I love having a slacker head tube angle and the frame isn’t as stiff.

Hey, long time lurker, first time poster.  I decided to buy a Airwolf SC highball of off aliexpress ($350). I had a lot of parts laying around, like wheels and a drive train, some odds and ends. Wanted to share some photos of the frame as I build it up. Frame weighs 1080 naked, 1144 with axle and seatpost clamp.  Finish was overall good except the chip in the head tube, rear axle is funky. The routing was backwards but easy to remedy.  I'm shooting for an 8.7kg build with components I have laying around.  Ill post more photos and riding experience once its built.
