I see that they have on with an integrated seatpost and a BB30 bottom bracket. The frame also has internal cable routing and comes with a glossy paint cover (instead of the carbon weave that I don't like). All that for $525. I'd get one if I had the money.
waaaaiiit a minute. did you essentially find the source of Kuota frames, buy an unbranded one, and put Kuota decals on it? if that's the case, awesome.
But are Kuota frames that 12k weave?
the only thing that would hold me back from buying an unbranded frame is that they mostly come in these bulgey/swoopy/curvy shapes with 12k weave. not my thing.
