Reviews & Ratings
The GEOID PM500 is a spider-based power meter with 4-bolt 110BCD 24mm interface, widely discussed as a rebranded or similar version of the Magene P505/P515. Users report it's typically priced between $180-$250, with weights around 668-680g including cranks. It uses a proprietary crank interface (similar to but not compatible with Easton/SRAM standards) paired with Senicx PR3 cranks, features ANT+/Bluetooth connectivity, and claims ±1.5% accuracy. The product is seen as a budget-friendly alternative to Magene's offerings, with compatibility with Magene apps and major cycling computers.
