Any good experiences with Airwolf frames?
There’s a fairly upright endurance open mold on aliexpress that has an ideal geometry I’m looking for to update my Giant Defy build from 2018… but the most popular seller of it is Airwolf, which has a very polarizing reputation. CWind, who makes quite a few gravel frames and seems to be well liked, also produces the same frame, but it has basically no reviews. Am I making a mistake going with either frame? I’d be using my own FSA headset and stem, so I wouldn’t need to fart around with the typical budget headset drama.
I basically just want a Defy, but with more tire clearance. I’d swap all my Shimano 105 parts over to it and use my carbon wheels. The new Light Carbon endurance frame would otherwise be the top of my list, but the price is escalating and I’m not confident they’ll deliver in a reasonable time frame!
