Well you have described the issue with a no name Chinese frame. You have no idea what thought process, if any, was put into the frame design. For all I know these were frames built for the lower end of US carbon sellers like Tomasso or Bikes Direct, etc.... only with labels in their case. My Chinese certainly does not have the ride quality of my Trek, so it was an interesting lesson.
