Description

🔗 https://bit.ly/AR-One
📝 The QUICK PRO AR:One is China's latest superbike. With a real-world 782g weight (Size M, Matt Black, incl. paint and accessories) and featuring aero tube profiling, the frame is the great center piece for any race bike.

I say "Race Bike" because thats an important distinction to make from a "Road Bike." This thing is made for performance, not cruises to the coffee shop (But I mean, your bike, you ride it how you like.)

⚠️ Disclaimer: I paid money for my frame. QUICK are not sponsoring me any goods, services or money to make this video. They haven't seen the script and will only see the video when it goes live. Panda Podium is my own company. We sponsor the Conti team using this frame. All opinions in this video are my own personal opinions. Of course, like everyone, I have bias. I have been involved in this project for over a year.
