Helix got customer funds up front, so that was not an issue.
Overall, I expect the bike to be very nice, however I do not expect it to arrive anytime soon.

Chinese New Year wasn't figured into the component ordering schedule. Also, factory setup and tooling is taking much longer than anticipated. Schedule has slipped 2 months already, and I would expect more slippage especially when they actually start a trial run..
