bike is available only in Japan for 900$
I’ve heard XDS does OEM for famous brands.
What I like about this bike is it comes with Tektro mineral brakes,both thruaxle hubs and its frame allows to fit 4.9 tires on both.which is crazy for this kind of price.weight is around 16-18kg I believe.I don’t even want to say it’s budget however 66mm narrow rims and 30TPI Kenda tires are lazy. rims are probably not tubeless ready, probably unable to fit 4.9 tires. having one frame size is understandable for cost wise.
take a look at geometry.toptube horizontal 614 headangle 69° rearcentor 440 nothing special. however the reach is extremely long 454 little bumps on the headtube leaves a bad impression.

Why not get a 2022 Norco Bigfoot 3 for $1299? You’ll have to upgrade brakes but can get the size you want and a bike with a proven track record. https://www.norco.com/bikes/mountain/fat-bike/bigfoot/2022-bigfoot-3/
Do you not ride in cold weather? Mineral doesn’t hold up where I live. I mean, it’s a good deal as long as you don’t have to ship it. I would imagine shipping it out of Japan would cost about half the price of the bike. Also you are looking at the very least spending half of what the bike is worth for new wheels and tires to fit the specs you want.
