Magene PES Crank P515 Power Meter 4 Bolt 110BCD 24mm Cadence Pedal Balance Ant Steel Spindle Crankset Chainring for Shimano Sram
PowermeterMy short experience with P515.
Sale via Ali from the EU shop went very well, delivery took 3-4 days more then expected. Crank looks very good, marginal heavier than the 105. Assembly was also no problem, I ordered it with the QED chainrings. Installation on my Lightcarbon LCR017 was not a big problem, I did however have to add a spacer on the drive side because otherwise there would have been play between the two arms. First 100k tour was also problem-free, recording in. Compared to the power meter pedals seems to be lower in the numbers, maybe still needs to be calibrated. What I also noticed is that the QED chainrings are louder than my 105 crank.
I hope this can help you a little.
Best regards.

SaddleHmmmm. Maybe no that the tariffs have made the prices jump up. But the saddles I got for under $40 last August have been more than decent. Thinking about getting a couple more for some other bikes I have, but I don't really want to pay almost double. But when I think about it, even at $80, it's a bargain compared to some of boutique western branded saddles that are double that.
