I received my Onirii One frame recently in size XL (56 cm equivalent). I ordered it painted black as they replied it would be the lightest. It weighed 685 grams without derailleur hand or water bottle bolts. The fork was 385 grams which is a bit heavier than advertised. Pictures to follow when I have enough posts to be able to.  I’m waiting for my Avian Canary integrated handlebars to arrive which may be at least a month out since they are 400X130 which is a newly offered longer stem length for them.

I'm interested to hear more about your experience further down the line! Going with the Avian Canary sounds like a much better idea than using Onirii's bar/stem.

Final update on my Onirii One:
It actually really grew on me, I got more used to the fit, it was still never quite right, but I was liking the bike more and more regardless. Loved the low bottom bracket's effect on handling. Every new bike takes some time for me to build up trust with but I did finally get to the point where I was trusting the One for just about anything, even full on sprints (I am much more of a sprinter than a climber).

Dealing with Onirii was fine to begin with, they were very responsive and helpful but when it came to the whole bar/stem length and labeling issues, it got a lot more difficult and I am trying to get Paypal to refund me for the second barstem. I'm fairly certain they are mislabeling the reach, stem length, and drop on all their bars.

Last week I sold the bike. It was a fun project, fun bike, and good learning experience. Now I am planning to take that experience into a new bike build :)

With a 5/10 being totally neutral I would say:
Building the bike: 4/10 - some challenges, I needed to file some holes. The angle of the holes you use to route the rear brake line around the bottom bracket were awkward, hard to route through. The alignment features on the first handlebar were misaligned and I had to cut off one of the two nubs to allow the top spacer to nest with the stem.   
Riding the bike: 8/10 - it was good fun.
Dealing with customer support: 4/10 - it was good until it wasn't.

Listed tire clearance for the open mold version is 28mm, and 30mm for the Onirii. Any chance you could stick an allen key between the fork and tire and chainstays, seattube, and tire and give us an idea of how much space there actually is to work with? Considering building up and painting one of the open mold versions to replace my TCR.

I've been eyeballing that open mold frame for awhile. I would just message the seller and ask if 30mm tires can fit? There's also the ICAN FL1 that fits 32c tires and cost as much if slightly less than the Onirii frameset (with no paint).

I have this bike in the open mold version (I think - purchased unbranded from a random aliexpress seller last year). I'm running 28mm GP5000s on 28mm wide rims. The tightest spot is between the chainstay and tire, where there's about 4mm of clearance on each side. Fork: ~6mm, seatstays: ~5mm, seat tube: 10mm or more. So I think 32mm GP5000s would fit - I'll give them a try when it's time for new tires.

I like it. The quality seems good to me. The caliper holes and bottom bracket threads are fine, and the glossy black finish is flawless. It's my only road bike right now, I'm in the market for an aero bike (N+1), but honestly finding it hard to justify since I have no problems with this one.

The flexiest part of my bike is the cheapo alloy handlebars. It has held up to my 8-12 hours a week of riding and training just fine. However I am a 63kg climber, so I'm not really worried about the weight limit or parts randomly cracking or exploding. Would I buy it again? Yes I would.

Happy to answer any specific questions you have.

Which store did you buy it from? I'm also looking into buying a frame now.

What do you think about the paint job?

I bought it from QILEFU Official Store on aliexpress - this is the listing: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804478469196.html
But now this listing is the new version with the headset cable routing, mine is the old version with the external routing holes.

The paint job is just plain, flat black with clear coat. Nothing special at all, but I like it.

Looks great!
I might order one too...

Wasn't there a paint job on top of the BBshell?

Thanks! I don't think you'd regret it.

No paint on my frame's BB shell, perhaps you're thinking of an anodized/painted bottom bracket? Mine has the plain old Shimano SM-BBR60 bottom bracket.

Well, I don't like it painted on the BBshell

Unpainted or anodized is best

Did you file the BBshell and screw holes during assembly?
