Kozo 2
« on: January 14, 2026, 04:44:57 AM »
Hi,

Have anybody any experience with the KOZO 2, or know which frame it is?
I know the KOZO 1 is the Winow WR054, but this one looks a bit different and I cannot find a similar Winow frame.

From KOZOs Alibaba page, it seems like it is quite a cheep frameset. I am currently getting a quote for the frameset with EDS TX (but without the wheels, crakset etc. which seems to be cheaper parts).
But it is difficult to find any reviews or experiences for the KOZO bikes....

Saw this too as the most sold frameset on Alibaba
Seems too good to be true
What is the wait ?
Geometry seems akward isn't it ?
What price did they quote you for frame + groupset ?

Wow, those AI pictures are soooo bad...  ???

I don't think they're AI generated. It seems like an actual bike - all the components are in the right place, chain seems correct, the spokes don't randomly disappear and merge into one another. On the closeup, there are imperfections, but they look like bad paint or even someone with grimy hands touching it.

Yeah, I don't think the photos are AI. Just severely noise reduced which produces artifacts like merging text etc.

DM me for product catalog and geometry chart for the frame.
I am in contact with the seller, asking for a quote for frameset and EDS TX, but without the parts that looks cheaper (wheels, crankset etc.) Idk if I should potentially also go with the provided integrated handlebarstem.
It might also be one of the cheaper items, but getting a custom one might be a pain since it is integrated.

If I go with it (if it the price low), it will be my first fully integrated handlebar bike. Would ideally like to buy a god quality integrated handlebar with a seperate semi-integrated stem, to figure out the correct stem length for me before buying a fully integrated one.

Are you aware of good handlebars and some semi-integrated stems, I find it hard to find semi-integrated stems....

I just got quoted 724usd for:

Frameset, handlebard, Wheeltop EDS.

No wheels, No crank, No pedals

Guess this is before shipping, as it seems very cheap...

Weights:
M:1150g,fork:520g,seatpost:230g,handle bar:360g

I am by no means a geometry expert, so I feel a bit unsure about the geometry and which size handlebar I should potentially choose.
I tried to fill in the geometry in geometrygeeks from the chart I got:

clearly some elements are AI generated. Look at the break discs, chain links, all of the text which is gibberish.

POTOOOOOOOO

Interesting spoke lacing on the front wheel 😂

About as real as Santa

Okey, might be ai generated, but here is a alibaba link to the same frame, which seems like real photos.

This is the wheelset (which I am not planning on buying anyways) from a south african reseller (only place I have found them):
