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

fair, alright, will spend on pasta instead.

I agree, it's not like you need to be doing complicated stuff around intervals, just pushing hard at threshold-ish levels for an hour. HR's perfect for that.

That makes no sense. Buy a second hand Power2Max from @eyebrows, he seems to have an endless supply, then keep it because it's good to track numbers over time.

you need to collect that trendy frame pump btw.

ooh yeah. Where you working atm?

Also echoing the don't buy a single sided power meter comments.

My L/R balance varies depending how close I am to FTP, buying a single sided power meter would be like buying a random number generator

@amey Buy my soon for sale P2m.

It'd produce consistent numbers though, rather than genuinely random ones.

I've already crashed twice so maybe I'll get someone to sponsor me this .. #blessed

Got my power2max for sale if anyones interested.

If I can borrow a Garmin I'll do a Powertap hub vs Stages GPX Left crank fixed riding comparison. Watch out DC rainmaker..

Why not buy 2nd hand P2M or SRM?

I think I will just stick with HR for now ..

Looking forward to that.

Yeah HR or 2nd hand P2M/SRM. Don't bother with middle ground.

yeah cant afford that .. instead I might squeeze in a sunny/hilly 'training camp' before

Do you need a HRM? I still have a Polar kicking about.

I've got a garmin thats ok for now but will PM if I need a spare. Ta!

But yeah, I'd just train off perceived effort. But maybe you're not so dialled into your body, so a HRM will help.

Don't know enough about FSA, do they do a track chainset that this would work with? On sale in 165mm. Might be of interest to someone. £270 (after £5 off code used).

Has anyone on here bought directly from Power2Max?

Seems like you can only pay for one using poxy Paypal or Bank transfer both of which will add £25-30 to the overall price and with the exchange rate as it is atm makes it a tad too pricey.

I'm after a type S with 110 spider for Rotor 3D+ cranks if someone has an un-abused one going.

Guess you can't use cc any more.

PayPal. £20 on £700 is pretty small amount.

I paid p2m via bank transfer and confirmation was prompt. IBAN codes work great so no silly business to be expected. I don't see a reason to use paypal for totally legit operator like p2m.

Has anyone on here bought directly from Power2Max?

Yes.
