Today, Quick Pro officially launched three new bike frames: the UR:ONE, XR:ONE, and TR:ONE. I summarized all the details we know so far below.
UR:ONE – A Crazy Light All-Rounder
The UR:ONE is an ultra-light, all-in-one road frame that tips the scales at just 680g in size M, a figure that immediately puts it in the same league as frames like the Evolve Cima and the Winspace SLC5. It represents the new “ultralightweight” direction from Quick Pro and visually sits between the AR:ONE and the ER:ONE in their lineup. According to Quick Pro, the UR:ONE is around 100g lighter than a like-for-like AR:ONE, although that claim will need to be verified once the production frame hits independent scales. In China, the frame is expected to retail for around 18,600 RMB (roughly $2660), including integrated handlebars, while pricing for Western markets has not yet been confirmed.
Much of the weight saving appears to come from the use of higher-grade carbon and very minimal paint, with all four available color options being black. Beyond weight, the geometry has also been revised. The UR:ONE reportedly features a higher stack and a lower bottom bracket than the AR:ONE, changes that should make the bike more stable and forgiving, though arguably less aggressive than a pure race-focused design.
Tire clearance remains at 32mm, keeping it modern and versatile. The use of premium details, such as ceramic headset bearings, helps explain the higher price point. From a performance standpoint, the combination of low weight and claimed aero efficiency makes this one of the most ambitious frames Quick Pro has released so far, with development and validation carried out at the Silverstone Sports Engineering Hub.
XR:ONE – A Gravel for Bike Packers
Next up is the XR:ONE, a gravel-oriented bikepacking frame priced at 10,998 RMB. It offers multiple mounting points (similarly to YOELEO G21 Altera), making it perfect for adventure riding setups. It increases the GR one’s tire clearance from 45mm to 50mm.
TR:ONE – A Solid Chinese Triathlon Frame?
Then there’s the TR:ONE, Quick’s new triathlon frame, apparently designed in collaboration with BMC. It comes with a bit of a cringey marketing slogan (Triathlon Quick Aero First), but design-wise, it seems pretty cool. I especially like the rear triangle. As standard on triathlon bikes, it has a water storage compartment and features you won’t see on UCI-approved TT bikes.
Based on the Club100 video and their visit to Quick Pro in the Silverstone wind tunnel, I learned the following. Please excuse any factual errors, as I translated the video from Chinese.
Quick Pro carried out professional wind tunnel testing at Silverstone to evaluate its road bike lineup, including a comparison with the Specialized SL8.
Tests were conducted at 30, 40, and 48 km/h, across yaw angles from –20° to +20°. All bikes used the same setup, and both empty-bike tests and fixed-position mannequin tests were performed to better reflect real riding conditions.
In the comparison with the SL8, the ER:ONE, Quick Pro’s pure aero race bike, showed a clear advantage in crosswinds, saving up to nearly 4 watts at high yaw angles. The SL8 had a small advantage in direct headwind due to its smaller frontal area, but overall, aero bikes performed better in side winds.
The main focus of the test was the UR:ONE, Quick Pro’s newest frame. UR:ONE weighs just 680g, including paint and hardware, making it the lightest frame in the lineup. Despite its low weight, UR:ONE delivers aerodynamic performance very close to the ER:ONE.
Wind tunnel results show that UR:ONE is often slightly faster than the AR:ONE climbing bike and only marginally behind the ER:ONE in some angles, with differences measured in fractions of a watt. At higher speeds, UR:ONE remains consistently competitive.
Overall, UR:ONE achieves its goal of combining very low weight with strong aerodynamic efficiency, making it a highly balanced, all-round race frame.
I’m working on finding out more details. I’m gonna update this article once I know more.
