Title: Kocevlo road bike frame
Post by: dsveddy on August 20, 2024, 10:52:34 AM
Just saw this deal on aliex: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256807294708249.html
 (https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256807294708249.html)

$313+free shipping for a carbon frame, absolutely burning the barn down with this price.

I pretty much have all the components I'd need to build it up and flip it. Should I pull the trigger or should I worry about something?

I don't know anything about this frame, but I have a Kocevlo one piece cockpit (67€). I've only ridden it for 90 km so far, but it feels really good. Would really be interesting to see if this frame holds up at all.
However, looking at the geometry chart, it's probably not for me. My head would fall off my neck if I had to ride this for more than half an hour.

Seems like it won't ship to Australia. Pretty odd looking geometry chart though, very slack head tube angles (for a road bike) and fairly steep seat tube angles. Pretty big offset on the seatpost (which I guess makes up for the seat tube angle) but it's an unusual setup.

They just added a few more colors to this frameset:
