Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Quick Pro ER:One
« on: January 01, 2026, 06:41:42 PM »
After getting my affairs organized, I finally put in an order for a custom color ER:One from Panda Podium with the guidance of Joe.

Super pumped now that I have some proper benchmark frames under my belt as a reference. I reckon however I won't have it in my hands until mid to late February. Just in time to build up and get dialed in for a few crits.

What I'm most keep about is the stiffness in both the bottom bracket and headtube areas.

What size did you end up getting Patty? L or XL? I've got a fit very similar to yours so I might try copying it for my own build.

Have you tried any other frames that you can compare it to? I used to have a Tarmac SL6 and switched to a Yoeleo, now I'm considering getting this in that same silver/black color.

What tubeless sealant do my fellow cheapskates buy?

My brother loves Squirt Seal, tells me it's pretty cheap. Although seeing him faff about with setting up new tires will keep me using TPU.

The frame alone made me intrigued, but then I saw the picture of the bike with wheels in blue on the site. For some reason that bottom bracket area just looks so out out of proportion.

Anyone got any suggestions for an e-pump? Saw the Cyclami mentioned, any other good ones?

Did anyone had the chance to compare the ykywbike/darevie to cheji ? I want to buy a second jib but I dont know which to pick ^^
ykywbike seems to have a larger range of models

YKYWBike is really nice, follow their sizing chart and you'll have a very decent bib for real cheap. Bought three pairs in 2023 and still using them now.

Just want to come in and re-extol the virtues of my older Ride now (classic?) tubes. The older 36g ones with the plastic valves. I've had a rash of broken spoke nipples and other wheel issues. I've had one tube that I swear has been removed and re-installed about 4 or more times now over the last 800+ miles and it's been fine. I used to worry about how delicate they seemed and would fret over pinching them on install, but I guess I don't need to worry so much.

I just had a broken spoke nipple fixed again on that wheel the other day and finished up a ride on it today with that same reused tube so it was fresh on my mind when I saw this thread again.

I've been running the clear plastic valve ones since 2023, somehow haven't managed to puncture yet and my pair have lasted well over 10000 miles. Maybe it's my tire choice (GP5k's, now Pirelli P Zero RS Clinchers), but they're awesome.
