who is to say they “stole” anything plus when have round tubes become patent technology. You just come off as a Western gatekeeper and borderline racist. Read a book
Oh, so since your friend just built up a Sohtea, you’re qualified to say there is zero difference. And since you say the owner of Panda Podium claims Big rock is the manufacturer of the Aethos, that’s to be taken as fact as well.
There is a lot more to frame design than tube shape, but perhaps that is your bar for determine whether two frames are exactly the same.
I’ll decline to respond to your other completely inappropriate personal attack as it just gives more insight into the level of person making the comments.
