BUY THE CRANK HERE: pixel.xin/3vEIJG USE CODE: "GC PERFORMANCE" FOR 10% OFF This is one of the items that truly blows me away for how much value you get from it. This crank is $300 and is saying it puts out sram quarq accuracy numbers that is competitive in the weight department and is easily and ready to be installed on any shimano crank bike.... if you have a shimano crank and are looking for a power meter upgrade, this is hard not to consider. Same BB and Same chainrings, its that simple.

It a good deal if it doesn't break. I bought the spider power meter from them and it stop connecting to my garmin. It took multiple emails just to get a answer from them. The end result was they wanted me to pay for shipping to them. Than if they felt like it need replacing they would ship me another at my expense. It was close to $80 round trip. But still no guarantee it will last any amount of time.

Bought a P505 power meter in June and have been using it a lot since (at least 3500km in that time). Not using the cranks in this video, though. Still, super happy with it. Works great. Consistent with the Sigeyi AXO I have on my other bike. Still haven't charged it once since I bought it. I've also got a Magene heart rate monitor and a headlight, and I've been happy with those too. They definitely make good quality products at reasonable prices.

So far the power meter and using shorter crank arms are good. Please remeber to zero in the calibration before going out. I forgot on the first day riding and my power numbers were higher than after I calibrated which made me sad lol. Also I had to adjust my limit screw slightly for the FD.

I put one one my GRX Gravel bike with some STONE 46-32T Chainrings about 2 months ago and I can't really fault it. I did find the left/right % readings seem to jump around more than my pedal types while riding, but I don't have previous experience with spider based systems maybe that's the norm? Only thing to take note of (especially with a sub-compact Gravel setup) is that the arms being straight and angled rather than curved like Shimano you cant be sloppy with the top limit and front mech' position as the cage comes quite close to the arm. They do seem very stiff so they don't flex into it but I'm a bit of a flyweight/spinner so not the best judge.

Also regarding your concern, power output at 12 o'clock crank position is quite low compared to 9 o' clock, you may already know that since you have experience with pedal based PM, so flex towards your fd shouldn't be a big issue.

Magene is a massive company that sells a plethora of products. All theses power meter companies don’t have service in house. If a customer has an issue they have to send it out. Same with magene. They have us warehouse and the products are pretty much plug and play. It’s all perspective on how much an item is and if it is worth the value. That is the point of the cheap products if you get 3/4 years out of the crank for $270 that is extreme value. That is longer life then a chain and cassette you have to replace which would cost more if it was ultegra or durace

This is the ultimate BS ever! Why should I replace my entire original crankset in order to install a one side power meter that cost US$ 300.00 dollars if I can just replace one arm of the original crankset for about the same price using the 4iiii or Stages one side power meter arm?????????

@GCPerformance18 7 ай бұрын

Why would I delete it, let’s say you have a 11 speed crank and don’t want to worry about the recall. Also stages and or 4iii is expensive depending on the model a durace left sided crank arm is 500+ this is lighter then ultegra and 105 power cranks, and maybe you want to try smaller crank arms for a fit. There are plenty of reasons why this is a great choice. It’s accuracy reading is measured that or quarq.

@GCPerformance18 7 ай бұрын

Also get left right power meter accuracy instead of just normal power reading.

@@GCPerformance18 You did several times before. You don't like because I am telling people you are wrong and that is bad for your business. the 4iiii one side crank arm power meter cost about the same and you don't need to remove your entire crankset. 4iiii is accurate, at least as accurate as Magene and far easier to install.

I have a Stages left crank arm for a Ultegra crankset, that was sadly involved in the bogus Shimano recall. My local bike shop inspected the crankset but was pretty dismissive about the whole situation. Bottom line, I don’t trust the crankset and looked for another alternative. This seemed like a good fit. $300 is a good price for piece of mind in my case.

NO! You absolutely DON'T need this power meter. This is a one side power meter that you have to disassemble your entire crankset to install it and move the chainrings from your actual crankset to the Magene one! It is bulshit! You DON'T have to do this. You DON'T need to go through all this hassle! Just buy a 4iiii crank arm power meter (it just one side power meter exactly like this Magene - one side only) for US$ 300.00 American dollars (that is what I paid for my 4iiii one side power meter arm) and just remove one arm of your crankset to install it. You don't have to remove the entire crankset and you don't have to pay a mechanic (GC-Performance) to do that for you. It is pretty easy. Don't listen to this guy!

Spider based PM's are dual sided they are not usually quite as accurate/stable at taking left and right measurement's as having 2 independent sets of sensors because of how they work but its way more accurate than a single.
