I dont think so this is mold.
And like I said, inside is a little mess, thats true.
I have v1 and v2 fake factor and there is no much difference between them. The biggest is look. V2 looks like after little lift. Both are responsive, durable and stiff. On V1 I rode 6000km with no issue, will see what will be with v2. On v2 i rode 1000km so far.

Sharing a few photos of the head tube and bb.  Smooth inside out, IMO.  Will share the final build once finished.

Picked up my new v2 with 54-39t rotor chain ring and 165mm cranks, DA 11-30t cassette and Supacaz handlebar tape. Feel free to criticize.  Cheers.

I believe all Ostro vam2 has T47A BBs. Double check with your seller before buying BB.  I bought it for the mean time although it has some good reviews.

Any sellers that sell an Ostro V2 in size 61?

Love the rims, which brand are they?

Colonel

It's from go-zone in Ali.  45-50mm depth, 28mm rim width, upgraded the rachet to 60t, marble finish at 1267grams.  Enjoying it.

Was the V2 frame easier to route internal cables ?  I am tempted to do another build - who did you order from ?  Can you PM me the link.

jeez caught up on the thread and it seems like some companies are slinging some pretty garbage V2's. I will still go to bat for the quality of my FC-Carbon V1.

Please do your research before buying after seeing some of these photos of the internals and listen to people like @sergeK.
