1. Where is it made? Taiwan?
2. What is the BB DROP? I can find the "height" but that measurement is useless unless all bikes were measured with the same tires, which they're not.
3. Will it work with low q factor road cranks like Dura Ace or Ritchey?
4. What do you think of the cable routing? Looks like the rear der goes along the top tube and the front der goes along the down tube.
5. How do you clamp it into a repair stand? On the seat tube? Is there a clear coat over the decals?
6. How's the fork? Any failure reports?
7. Any other comments? Thanks!

NEVER clamp an Aluminum bike into a repair stand by a tube.

Never say never. Depends on the frame in question.

Also depends on the kind of stand you are using. I've got the shop quality Park stand where you can fine tune the amount of pressure to the tube. Clamping a seat tube that is also internally supported by a seat post shouldn't be a huge risk, epecially a cheaper, thicker tubed AL frame like the Redline. Now, I wouldn't clamp a C-40 on the top tube with a cheap home repair stand...

1) it does not say where it's made on the frame.

2) with nominal 32c tires (tufo prestiges), it's about 305mm from center of BB to floor.

3) I have a DA crank, single ring setup, mated to a 112.5mm XTR BB on a 48cm frame. I think any road crankset will work on most frames.

4) your observations are correct. I'm OK with it. to route the front derailleur by the top tube would restrict one to MTB derailleurs. I don't use a front derailleur.

5) there is a clear coat.
