I have a h64 and a h303, they have been flawless. My garmin went to shit after less use.

They just have different straps

It looks a bit like the BMC team machine R. I am tempted.

It really really does not

You can ask them if it's compatible with dt swiss internals. Beyond that, there really isn't much in it. It's incredibly difficult to mess up the shell design these days, the bearings are standard and I'd say lb are trustworthy enough to not mess up tolerances.

PandaPodium product page:

The AR:One was developed to strike a balance between weight, stiffness and aerodynamic efficiency. The tube profiles were designed using a wind-tunnel verified computation fluid dynamics (CFD) model. With the team's sprint speeds often exceeding 70kph, the importance of aero cannot be overstated.

It's been for sale for like a week

if I wanted a light allround bike, this is what I would go for. But I will be waiting on the ER:One, hope it will be even a bit more aggressive. Probably coming sometime in Q2 2025, based on the AR:One development-to-release cycle

standard operating procedure

They're using some h-works, chosen, novatec, powerway and bitex hubs, but the majority do indeed come from the same place as foldix, wherever that is.

The only spokes I'd actually use are the 01 and 02 ones, the others all have more questionable designs. Possibly 03 as well but I can't tell from the picture how the hub side of the spoke is bonded to the metal.

The rim profiles are boring and mid, but some of them are crazy light.

@toxin Peter showed me a picture of the 20h hub. It's 294g/set and slotted straight pull, not side entry.

The updated wheels will be nice when they are released. The only drawback I see is that, according to many manufacturers' charts, 26mm internal width needs a wider road tire than most people would want to run. I think I would feel comfortable with 32mm on those wheels, following the rough ETRTO guidance, but that's at odds with the charts from Conti and Schwalbe.

A touch on the heavy side but ok.

Yeah, not great for the front, personally I'd only be running these rims on the rear anyway
