Ahh yes, does look very similar, geometry is spot on too. Good find! Only difference that I could find  is that on Hongfu's website tire clearance is 28c vs 30c on State.

I saw that awhile back, I was curious who they were sourcing the frames from? They also use Sensah for their shifters and RD.

I saw a State bike recently and it had State branded shifters and drivetrain. They just rebrand Sensah stuff?

Chinese manufacturers tend to put frame clearance on the low side I found.

Yes, all rebranded Sensah components. It's somewhat of an open secret.
