Power Meters / Powermeters (SRM, Powertap, Quarq, Ergomo, Vector, Stages, power2max, P2M, 4iii, InPower, Cinch)

Its added suspension.

Yeah but if I'm running a single ring TT setup again then front shifting is irrelevant.

This is obviously the QI booby Word.

But stages?

If it were me I'd suck it up and get a Rotor crankset With P2M. When its still quietly working flawlessly in a few years time the initial outlay will seem more than Worth it.

fair

Yeah but if I'm running a single ring TT setup again then front shifting is irrelevant.

Which is why I put the Shimano 4 bolt P2M on the Time Machine, in order to move the 5 bolt SRM onto the new bike that will be 1x11.

Stages? umadbro?

I also have a spare set of DA 7800 cranks and a spare set of S-Works cranks that I could throw a P2M at but if I'm building up a new 'ultra-racing machine' soon it's likely I'll get rid of the Kinesis in which case I'll already have a 172.5mm P2M available.

What I probably should do is sell off all these spare cranks and use that little pot to fund the new P2M+Rotor and Zipp disc setup.

The sensible thing to do. Is to sell off all the bits you dont really want/need, and buy the set up you most want.

This was my plan when swaping my off-road bike from rigid 29er to bouncy 26er. So far I've sold nothing and am currently buying used parts for the 26er to compensate. Pure laziness.

I don't like letting go of stuff though. I just need it back later on or regret losing money on stupidly spendy parts in the first place. I'd rather let them rot in storage like an idiot, it seems.

'commodity'

You are not alone in this regard. I also have piles of parts for builds which I never even started, but which I'm sure will come in handy one day.

I buy niche Products at a high cost because they are niche.

Then cant sell them for anything because they are niche.

Dont suspose you're in the market for a single speed, 29er, belt drive, wheelset..........no?.....didnt think so.

?

Swapped the battery in my brand new powertap. Garmin paired instantly.

Sorted.

Q-Factor 145mm. Out.

What about a P2M for your Specialized cranks? Conflicting numbers out there, but they might be 137.5mm q (or might be 147.5mm)

They're the smaller (137.5mm).

So, they're lower Q than my DA but not as low as Hollowgram SI /SISL2 cranks.

The other issue is they are too long for my TT bike - I need 165mm to prevent my hip nerve/blood vessel crushing causing my left leg to go numb.

Anyone interested in the converter plate I have had in a draw for years?

It fits a 110 bcd crank and allows you to fit a 144 bcd ring - so run a track ring on your compact powermeter crank.

rotor?

It's a Bedop made plate, fits anything - Rotor would be one.

Any recommendations for a suitable power meter to run on campagnolo chorus ultra torque 11 speed? Have looked at the power2max type s but its for a friend and he says it's a bit pricey so any other suggestions appreciated.

Not adverse to swapping the entire crank as long as its compatible on ultra torque/bbright.
