No gone for full complete bike with high end components what your budget
Who did you buy it from(what is the sellers name). Thanks in advance
Just a word of caution for other people. I stopped getting responses to my emails after few where exchanged. I did not get scammed. Just mysterious silent when I showed interest in buying a bike.
And about the frame.. there have been few people who have bought the frame that have said the frame is not really a UDH compatible and that the chain rubs the frame when in highest gear.
I would suggest to wait and see how these frames will truly turn out. I wish nothing but rhe best for all these frame companies. But always remember that first people to buy anything for a new company are the test dummies not only for the actual frame but also the longetivity and structural strenght of the frame.

who did you email?
Any more info. to share about this frame? It looks very interesting, but some of the geometry confuses me. The effective seat angle shows to be a slack 71.5 degrees, but in the pictures it looks to be closer to 77 and that appears to be with a mullet setup. The reach for a Large looks very short at 460mm. Can anyone vouch for the accuracy of the numbers in the geometry chart?

I got a complete Bike from Alibaba. I can say that yes it comes as a mullet setup. 29 in the front 27.5 in the rear. I think it’s a great EMTB I got the size medium (S2) pro spec build because I prefer Rockshox because that’s what I’m used to. If you want to see any pics of my bike let me know. I’ll attach one below. I only upgraded I’ve made is adding Deity pedals and a Deity 80mm rise handlebar. I think it’s a great lightweight EMTB I think it’s like 21KG or something like that. I had a commencal meta power SX race and that thing was heavy af.

Oops my mistake no 29er in the front 27.5 in the rear I’m used to 27.5 bikes just because I like them more agile. Not a reverse mullet
This frames geo in pictures looked quite modern... but the geo chart looked way off the s3 was 480 reach with a top tube of 655 wtf ? so it get the better of me and i contacted them about it and sure enough they made a boo boo with there geo numbers here's the updated chart

Which leads to the question how they designed the frame. Normally You design it around a given horizontal top tube length or reach value. Both values are not a straight figure, so it looks like everything just happened by chance

I can ask factory to weight it if this is a usable information.

The frame looks very beautiful. I like it. If the M560 motor makes little noise at the same level as the M510, it will be a very good kit. If 720W is not enough, you can always install a range extenderm Size 3,1kgPos.3
why not put m510 ? its lighter , more efficient and less noisy compared
to m560.
peak power still around 700watts which is more then enough
i only ride it in eco and tour and sometimes in sport, nobody needs even more power
When you change a bike with an m820 motor to a bike with an m560 motor. You begin to realize that riding at high speed uphill and downhill brings a lot of pleasure. The M510 is a very good motor. It is necessary to have two engines in stock M510 and M560. You can change the motor depending on your mood.why not put m510 ? its lighter , more efficient and less noisy compared

I talked to Sam from Kunlun. The frame weighs 3.1kg. The battery is not removable. The battery can be ordered 720W. They have a new screen on the frame and wireless buttons on the steering wheel. They have exclusive software for the M560. The suspension stroke can be changed to 170 or 190mm. I haven't figured out how it's changing yet. The channels for cables and hydraulic lines are very well thought out.
Yeah. Alot of people who haven't tried a more powerful motor will never understand how fun it can be go fast uphill before they get to try it themselves.
have an m600 and its fun, but range sucks.
i rather use a more balanced motor like m510. i even cap the max power to something like 85%. dont need all that
