Well, for one thing, if it isn't a knockoff, the China one is no newer than a 2009 frameset, since 2009 was the last of the aluminum + 26er XTCs.

I'm suspicious of the frame on Ali Express. Note: the decal on the left chain stay is incorrect. It says "Giant". In the search I did on line, all the XTC frames said "XTC" on the inside of the stay. Maybe it's an older frame, but it's not consistent.

Yeah, I tend to forget about the huge non-US/North America international market that a giant like Giant supplies.
