They've got the paint job down in Cloppenburg. The chic colour scheme makes the carbon frame of the Cayo Evo 5.0 instantly appealing, while the colour-coordinated equipment reinforces the good first impression. The very stable frame, which is relatively light for the price range, is the best thing about the bike, which otherwise leaves a lot to be desired. The narrow saddle seems to be a complete mistake, it directs all the pressure onto the sensitive perineal area and eliminates any riding pleasure. The thin top link is also not well chosen. The visually appealing no-name brakes were noticeable due to heavy brake pad wear and left clear marks on the rims after just one descent. In addition, the rear clincher tyre was annoying due to heavy radial runout.
