Are you being dense or something? Similarly equipped is in reference to the Shimano groupset.

Again we do not know whether the frames are of the same quality. And I never said they were. This is like the 3rd time I am posting it. Is my post being translated to Arabic?
However I will not be the least surprise if they are of similar quality. Go see how many different Roadbike Alu reference frames are offered at Kinesis (www.kinesis.com.tw). To be specific - pure Aluminium frames none of those carbon seat stays or forks options for apples vs apples comparison.
