If aluminum is an option for you, forum members have built bikes with the Gas cycle (use search function)
There are also threads about Seaboard steel frames

Elitewheels Edge is available as rim brake version in 40 and 50mm rim depth, should tick your boxes and can be sourced via AliExpress
XMCS has the CS-RRW-50-28 or CS-RRW-38-28 as standard option on their homepage, note these are with carbon spokes

I am based in Germany and my AliExpress order on the Ryet Official Store was cancelled after it was initially accepted (reason: "issues with shipping") and refunded

Looks similar to Ullicyc T4 Ultra, I am running the T4 cockpit on two bikes and I am very happy with it.
Noticed Hudud started selling it as HB071, but I have not came across Yichord.

They all look similar to the Lightcarbon HBR017 but there seem to be differences as pointed out by other forum contributors.

5
anyone ordered these recently? curious about time until shipping. not sure if LC is struggling to meet demand only on frames or everything.

Aren't the Ullicyc T4 Ultra on AliExpress near identical to the HBR17?
Slight differences in the mounting system to the fork and cable routing ports, but the rest seems very comparable to me...

Where did you order Oniiri RH bars?
They are called HB 02 and Onirii Official Stroe sells them on AliExpress

Incolor, Ullicyc

The bikes with aftermarket riser bars, not sure if there is any real benefit.

I would like to think the aftermarket riser bars offer an optical benefit.
Slammed stems seem to be desired for look and social media, riser bars help combine aggressive / racy look and decent fit?

Might be worth checking with HY Bicycle Store on AliExpress:

ULLICYC T4 ULTRA looks similar to Lightcarbon HRB17 in shape, but has differences on computer mount and how it secures to the steerer tube
Answered this already in your other post

but you seem to spread your questions all over...

If you prefer "non-flat / shaped" saddles, did you ever try or look at the Mixed 5D?
If you prefer 3D printed, this Ryet saddle (seems it's called X21 or X6D) is similar in shape:

Ullicyc T4 Ultra and the 3D printed FSA ACR adapter from Ullicyc that is sold as separate item

For reference, I am 1,95m tall with 96cm inseam.
Came to this wonderful forum for my Velobuild VB-R-099 build some years ago.

In regards to your stack height topic: of course this depends on quite some factors, riding preference, torso length, flexibility, etc.
Over the years I refined my bike fit, but would not go below 600 stack today (at least not significantly) while I am targeting around 620 for me these days.

Posted this on other similar threads, already:

Frames you could look at are Yishun R068-D / Hongfu FM238 / Lightcarbon LCR018-D / Carbonda CFR-505 SL

Sourcing frames and building bikes requires knowledge and experience, especially true for Chinese frames as not everything is always perfect and support comes from far.
Maybe worth considering a European brand such as Canyon or Cube, both have high stack options for tall people.
Or investigating the second hand market?

I'm still likely to buy a Geoid PM500 for my next bike since it seems to be nearly identical to a 505 or 515 at a considerably lower price, proprietary interface or no.  At least I know the Senicx cranks it comes with are decent, since I've got them on two of my bikes and they work just fine. Any chance of a review from you in the next couple of months? I'd love to know your thoughts on it before laying my money down on it.
As I understand it the Geoid PM500 is a rebranded Magene P515. Since Shane already reviewed the P505 back in 2022, I would not think a review of PM500 or P515 are on his testing backlog.
Unfortunately Magene discontinued the S1078, S1103 and S1108 options of the P505, if you are okay with the Senix crank get the PM500 or buy the P515.

Do you know if it's possible to buy this new bolt anywhere for users with the old system?
I can not remember how I got my replacement bolt, through the AliExpress seller or from Magene directly.
After I lost the first version preload bolt, I ordered two pieces of the new two piece design, to have one spare just in case.
In the P505 thread there are multiple users that have shared how to get replacement through AliExpress sellers, Magene directly or even through Panda Podium.
Example here

I am not sure if there are local sources, I guess most people have received replacement from Asia (incl. waiting time).
I remember, that I used an aluminum preload bolt from AliExpress (Shimano style fits) in the meantime while waiting for the Magene part.
