Vendor Discussion & Reviews / LaoWang bike store

Thumbs down on this vendor-have an integrated handlebar stuck at the local delivery company about 30 km away for three weeks so far and they're refusing to initial a trace request with DHL ecommerce.

DHL ecommerce specifically says to have the shipper/seller initiate the trace, but they seem to believe I need to do this.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / OG Evkin CF-025

Finally arrived on the weekend-same geometry chart as Velobuild's R066 and definitely inspired by the Canyon Ultimate frameset if not a 1:1 copy.

Seller communication was great.  Not clear from their Ali listing, but a headset was included, as was an extra derailleur hanger.

Paint quality and tube insides look good-BB86 dims are within a few hundredths on my digital calipers.  Tire clearance is enormous; Conti GP in 25c on a 17mm inner rim had plenty of space and it definitely looks like a 28 would fit if it clears the rim brakes.

In size L, frame weight worked out to 1135 grams (seller shows two figures in their listing-one for 1068 +/- 40 g, and one for 828 +/- 50g), uncut fork 350, uncut seatpost 165.

Given the frame weight, I'm hoping for tank like durability; still down almost 600 grams from a 2006 Ridley alu/carbon stay frame set.

Pictures to follow. ;D
