I'm sorry about that. Especialy that it is not common place to break. I was about to buy epic clone from SPcycling , but changed my mind in the end 

Take a look on Airwolf YFM053. I am going with them instead. A safer bet hopefully.

Was there a problem with spcycle previously?

There are several posts of peeps reporting broken suspension arm as well as cracked frames if you google the keywords.
They are claiming to adress those issues with the M868 launch, but since there are also several posts in this forum about other SPcycle frame quality issues, i'm probably going to either skip buying it or wait until others confirming that quality issues have really been solved.
The second problem with them - according to few posts also in this forum, is not honoring their warranty. A couple of buyers left with a broken frame and no replacement in sight.
Either way, SPcycle not doing too good lately with all this bad publishity.

Im lucky that i decided to do some research before pulling a trigger on this frame. Not going to get my money with this kind of feedback. For some reason the feedback on aliexpress site is great for this and also for the SP-M06. Go figure...

I am also 179.5cm and I was about to order an M size. According to them, it should be my size. Now I am confused.
Also, it looks like 2.2 wide tires would not fit. I guess I will have to do a hardtail gravel bike afterall.

I am also curious about this thing. If it comes in more affordable and is good quality then I may consider it over the SPCycle M868. Unfortunately there is little to none information out there.
Has anyone bought and reviewed/inspected it? 
One thing i certainly don't like is the pressfit bb on this thing, but i could live with it if the frame is otherwise good.

There aren't too many 130-150mm rear travel chinese frames out there. Some chinese manufacturers don't even have one to offer. The SPCycle and Airwolf ones however are both UDH.

Is this available only by contacting them on email? Not seeing it on webshops anywhere.

Really? Pretty much all frames are UDH now.
A few here:

or here:

These are probably the lightest 4 piston brakes on the market right now? I'm considering it for my incoming ultralight build.

For me too, and I suppose for many. The cable routing itself is not a problem for me, but I race, so I want the cockpit as low as possible with a fork of 120mm travel. A completely internal routing is the opposite of that idea. Besides, I am a fan of mechanical gear changes and sharp cable turns will not work here

Same here. Cables through the headset is a bad design trend that needs to go away. It has no real benefits, is annoying to service and can lead to problems.

I contacted SP Cycle and was told that it'll be released on september now. I guess they needed to do more testing.
