They seem to be cartridge bearings. I would suggest using blue Loctite (or other brand stuff) on every pivot bolt. They can come loose while riding.

Can´t say about long term, but term perhaps. I enjoy riding it more than Epic clone. The rear suspension is closer to RM Element than Epic clone. I don´t like working on headset cable routing but it looks good.

My first version of YFM059 didn´t have the hole, but the new warranty front triangle has it. I like it.

Hello

I wouldn´t be worried. It is for water to come out of the bottom bracket. Water goes inside the frame through cable holes and the bearings don´t like it.

Cable routing between frame halves: a modified internal cable routing noise protection hose made of rubber could also prevent mud from getting in.

I think that the longer shock size is too long and raises the bottom bracket sky high. The old school imperial size 190 x 50 (51) fits in and gives a little longer travel. I have measured the frame clearance. Cable routing between the main frame and rear triangle is tricky. I had to disassemble the frame to route the cables. Less mud goes in if you put some kind of protector above the space between frame halves. I posted a picture of it earlier. If I lost the plugs I would cut an old inner tube and use it, maybe..

I think it looks like Megamo Track 120 year 2022.

Riding position length (saddle to bar) is within few millimeters compared to Epic clone size Large (same stem and saddle).

Bottom bracket height with 120 mm Sid and Kenda Booster pro 2.4 tires is about 33,8 cm.

It feels slacker than Epic clone.

I can tell more and attach pictures if needed..

Hi

I have this frame. I ordered it because getting a warranty Epic frame from Airwolf takes so long that we might have snow before it comes  :(.
