Happy Holidays!
Regarding this, and considering that you tested the QuickPro ER:One with many wheelsets, do you think that a 36mm rear rim is too wide for the ER:One? I am specifically looking at EliteWheels Drive SL 58D SS (36 front, 34 rear) and Zen Carbon Vaporlite II (36 mm front and rear).I measured the frame, about 8mm of clearance with my current wheel that is 30mm wide externally and about 6 mm of clearance with a 31mm tire.36mm rim means +3mm on each side, so I would get 5mm of clearance between rim and frame...for the tire I would say that 33mm is the absolute maximum I would run (I would probably prefer a 32mm WAM tire). What I am most worried about is the tire combination with the rim. 36 mm external is wide. 32 mm WAM x 1.09 is 34.88mm...36mm rim width seems reasonable only when running at least a 33mm WAM tire, otherwise is just added frontal area.I’ve actually tried something very close to this. I fitted a Tagoola Aura wheelset with a 35.8mm external and 26mm internal rim to the ER:One.I tested them with 34mm tyres that measured just over 36mm, and they did fit, but on the rear it was sailing a bit too close to the wind for me. I’d personally stick with a 32mm tyre that measures around 33–34mm. That gives you a much more sensible amount of clearance.I also had to remove the little front derailleur Di2 cable clip and tape the cable back. I rode the setup for around 20km and put tape on the inside of the chainstays so I could check afterwards for any signs of rubbing. There were no marks, but personally I wouldn’t run a tyre measuring around 36mm on the rear again.When I get my SL9 build back, I’ll try my 60mm VaporLite II wheels on the ER:One as well. They’ve got 32mm tyres on the rear, although I can’t remember exactly what they measure in reality. The 30mm front tyre measures 32.29mm, so that should give me another useful comparison.So yes, a 36mm external rim can fit, but for me the bigger consideration is the actual measured tyre width rather than just the rim width. I’d be much happier with a 32mm tyre that blows up slightly wider than trying to run something measuring around 36mm at the rear.If you message me here , I’ve got some photos and a video of the Tagoola setup I can whatsapp you
