Do you think the Beta frame is/was actually made in China by any chance? And that they came from same factory? Mine came from the Chongqing Shineray factory.

I'm also curious if the Beta Alp rear shock would work on the Chinese version, with actual bearings in the swing arms and etc although that might get really expensive to buy, since it's Italian...

I really want a Beta Alp now, lol! Although I guess technically I have one. 😊😊😊
