QO at Eurobike 2025
A Crank. A Stand. A Movement.
This July, we brought QO to the world for the first time. One product. One stand. One belief: that cycling components can be something more.
In the heart of Frankfurt, surrounded by giants, we stood for the few — those who ride with intent, who care about what they install on their bike, who notice the sound of a perfect shift.
And what happened next confirmed everything we hoped for.
The Lineup: RACE, GRAVA, ROCKS
QO RACE was the start. Built with aerospace-grade carbon, featuring aerodynamic dimples and our refined shifting interface, RACE turned heads before it even turned pedals. Riders lifted it, tapped it, admired the silence in its construction. It’s light, stiff, and finished with the kind of detail you usually only find in custom frames.
QO GRAVA came next. Reinforced with Kevlar and designed for durability on the toughest terrain, GRAVA blends stiffness and compliance with an aggressive, fast-forward stance. It’s a crankset built for long distances and rough conditions — without sacrificing weight or style.
QO ROCKS closed the triangle. Our MTB prototype raised eyebrows for its aggressive carbon layup, minimalist looks, and impact-ready Kevtex layering. Designed to handle real punishment without giving up efficiency, ROCKS is a signal: we’re not here to play it safe.
RACE SL: The Crank That Disappears Under You
Quietly revealed to a few lucky testers, the QO RACE SL is our lightest crank yet — and possibly the most radical. We stripped every gram that didn’t serve stiffness, aero, or aesthetics. What remained was something different: a crankset so precise and so quiet, it vanishes beneath the rider.
With production scheduled for autumn, RACE SL is the ultimate evolution of our performance-first approach. It’s not just lighter. It’s leaner. Sharper. Pure QO.
Collaborations That Matter: Factor, Festka & OPEN
At Eurobike, we had the privilege to partner with three of the most respected bike builders in the world. Each of them brought something unique — and each showcased how QO components can elevate the complete bike.
- Factor built a white OSTRO VAM with white RACE cranks at its core — minimal, brutal, and unapologetically fast.
- Festka, known for its carbon artistry, we made some matchy cranks that blended perfectly with their limited edition Spectre
- OPEN highlighted the versatility of our components on their performance gravel platform, with the new OPEN U.P.(P.E.R.) 2.0 built with our GRAVA crankset.
We couldn’t be more grateful to these brands. They reminded us: great components belong on great bikes.
A First Look at the Configurator
Personalization has always been part of QO’s vision. At Eurobike, we gave visitors a sneak peek at what’s coming soon: our online configurator, where you’ll be able to choose finishes, decals, and colors for each crankset.
It’s not about gimmicks. It’s about ownership. The bike is personal — and now, the crankset can be too.
The response? Immediate. Riders lined up to test color combinations, preview builds, and imagine their QO. The full launch is just around the corner.
