NEXGA S1 Powermeter
ForumChinertown

NEXGA S1 Powermeter

The NEXGA S1 Powermeter is a Chinese power meter that has gained attention for its sleek design, compatibility with Shimano chainrings, and an attractive price point, especially when purchased from PandaPodium at $299. Early reviews and user tests show that it can be accurate when freshly calibrated, but it suffers from significant zero-offset drift, requiring frequent calibration to maintain accuracy. The product has not yet been reviewed by GPLama, a well-known power meter reviewer. Concerns include the IPx7 rating for water resistance, the reliability of a new brand, and the need for constant calibration, which some users find unacceptable.

SPEXCEL EON Spring Summer Light Long Sleeve Cycling Jerseys Aero Fit Quick Dry and Breathable Fabric

for a thin long sleeve, I like this SPEXCEL one. I got the purple in L for a tight aero fit (186 cm, 80 kg). The arms are long enough. Could have also gone with the XL.

SPEXCEL SPC LAB New PRO Winter Thermal Fleece Cycling Jerseys Long sleeve Race Fit Nylon thermal fabric Warm and breathable man

Very happy with this one from Spexcel I got last year. Not red at all, more a dark orange terracotta. Photos in the reviews are more accurate. I'm 184cm/78-80kg and XL is the right size. The chocolate brown one sold out super fast last year so might have to get one of those for autumn/winter 2026. It's lined with brushed fabric so not just a summer jersey with long sleeves. Thermal gilet over the top for winter rides, thin wind breaker gilet for autumn morning outings.
