CategoryFrame

The OG-EVKIN QONQI frame is a high-value, lightweight integrated road frame that offers excellent value and a clean, premium look, with easy assembly and flawless shifting when built with a mechanical groupset. However, quality control issues are a concern: the frame's headset and bottom bracket threads may need attention, and the integrated handlebar has been criticized for cracking and poor fit, though many users ride OG-EVKIN bars without problems.

Pros

  • Fantastic value for the money1
  • Easy to work on; everything goes together well1
  • EPS molding techniques result in clean internal walls and controlled wall thicknesses1
  • Threaded T47 bottom bracket1
  • Comes with extras: adapters for oval carbon saddle rails, extra rubber bungs for mechanical/electronic groupsets, additional headset cap1
  • Integrated handlebars are lightweight (334g) and have easy cable routing1
  • Shifting performance is flawless despite internal routing1
  • Seat post and saddle clamp do not slip1
  • Lightweight: 7.7 kg build with mechanical groupset1
  • Great compliance and comfort due to round seat post1
  • Accommodates 30c tires despite 28c max claim1
  • Looks like a much more expensive bike1
  • Many people have been riding OG-EVKIN handlebars for years without issues2

Cons

  • Threads on left side of bottom bracket weren't super clean (possible overspray)1
  • Headset cap contacted frame causing creaking, which required sanding to fix1
  • Ongoing maintenance may be a pain due to fully integrated cables1
  • Frame weight is 1100g, heavier than some competitors1
  • No rubber skirt seal between frame and headset cap1
  • Cable routing can be tricky and requires patience1
  • The mono-steering wheel does not lock properly on the stem and does not tighten up, causing movement2
  • Additional rings are needed to lift the cover from the frame to prevent rubbing2
  • The handlebar clamps close and do not allow further tightening2
  • A crack appeared on one handlebar after a single day of riding2
  • The tightening torque maximum of 6 Nm is insufficient; the reviewer had to tighten to 11 Nm to prevent movement2
  • The frame requires additional rings to fit a standard stem, otherwise it won't tighten2
  • The T47 bottom bracket had play and ceramic bearings2

Key Facts

  • Frame weight: 1100g naked1
  • Handlebars weight: 334g1
  • Uses T47 threaded bottom bracket1
  • Max tire size claimed 28c, but 30c fits with clearance1
  • Internal cable routing through integrated bar and headset1
  • Build weight: 7.7 kg with mechanical groupset1
  • Frame price: about £650 (frame only), complete build just over £1,5001

OG-evkin Qonqi. Сборка на механике Shimano 105.

The reviewer discusses OG-EVKIN QONQI (referred to as Oga Yavkin) primarily in the context of its mono-steering wheel (handlebar), which he strongly criticizes. He mentions that the handlebar does not lock properly on the stem, requires additional rings to fit, and in one case, a crack appeared after a single ride. He also notes that the frame required extra rings to fit a standard stem and that the T47 bottom bracket had play. Despite these issues, he acknowledges that many people ride OG-EVKIN handlebars for years without problems, and he does not condemn the entire brand.

Modern Integrated Frame & Cheap Mechanical Groupset: A Perfect Match?

The reviewer discusses the OG-EVKIN QONQI frame, an updated version of a discontinued value-oriented road bike frame. He transfers a mechanical groupset from an older OG-EVKIN frame to this new one, which features fully internal cable routing. Despite initial concerns about sharp cable bends affecting shifting, the build is successful, and the shifting performance is flawless. The frame offers excellent value, easy assembly, and a clean aesthetic, with minor issues like a creaking headset cap that he fixes.
