Hi everyone
I have to change the rear tire of my workswell M-062 now I ride a continental race king 2.2 with a ETRTO of 55-622, i would like to try a maxxis ikon 2.2 but this tire have a ETRTO of 57-622 and I'm worried that this tire is not compatible, because the continetal is already very close to the frame. What is the maximum width (ETRTO) of the tire that the frame supports?

They are mounted up to crankbrothers cobalt 3 rims an inner width of 23mm.

That's not what cracked carbon looks like. That's where the two sides of the mould come together. These guys just didn't sand it down as nice as they should have before painting it.

So for you it is just a crack in the paint ?
Sanding this area down should validate your point.

Try here  https://derailleurhanger.com/shop/   It will be a slow process as I doubt it will be listed by name. If you can't see one that matches then I suggest you contact them, send them a pic and ask them if they have anything compatible. Only 514 to choose from, it shouldn't take you too long.  ;)

Hi all. I like to share my experience with this frame. At the beginning I heard cracking from the frame, but all was OK. After almost a 20 months of usage (XC marathons) the tube from seatpost was broke (see picture). I thought - I have 2 year warranty. I wrote to the seller. After some conversation I receive a answer:
'
The factory says that it is a big crack caused by jumping or climbing with rocks or very tough terrain and with a large amount of force.
we can't know what is big force come from .
'

I strongly advise against buying anything from workwell company.  I can't use MTB frame in "climbing with rocks".

Currently I'm waiting form new frame: OG-EVKIN CF-052. I will write new post when I test it.

Worskwell sell relatively cheap frames. But their after sale and support sucks.

My M-062 is currently ridden by a friend that is a disaster for gears of any kind.
He had an issue once with a BB-infinite that I did put inside, probably badly, but except this the frame is still intact.
I will get the bike back soon, to use it as a home trainer.

I've never seen any report about OG-EVKIN frames, where did you find about them ?

I find them on aliexpress. The geometry of this frame is looks OK for me. I will check the quality of this frame, but it's look OK on users photos.

I receive this frame few days ago. 
First impression:
 - the bottom bracket holes is not perfectly rounded, but I don'y have any issue when I use BB press to install BB92 shells.
 - holes for the cable/hose is very sharp inside frame. This can damage the the hose.
 - building quality and stiffness is perfect (excluding previous 2 points)
 - I use Continental Race King 2 2.2 and have very big clearance between frame and wheel
 - after 100km I can say, that this frame is more predictive than M062
