Author Topic: What left side crank power meter for Sensah empire 2x11 with Zrace cranks?  (Read 2804 times)

Hi everyone!

I've been looking for a budget left side power meter. I purchased this Groupset from ebay with the sensah empire 2x11. Bottom bracket is Bb86.

I will be buying the velo build 099, 168 or the LTK268 from Longteng.

What budget power meter is compatible with this?

Would This work?

I am waiting for your recommendations.

This is a tough one if you are looking, specifically, for a left side crank PM to fit a Zrace. I think you may have more luck with a spider based PM, with the added benefit of a better estimated dual sided measurement.

Here's the Sigeyi spider for Zrace, but I don't know if it's sold separately. It's a heck of a deal if you plan to use Zrace anyway. You may be able to pick up this crank then source the rest of the components for cheaper?

The problem with this crank is, the bike uses bb86.

Yes, the ebay description says BSA DUB, but i spoke directly with the seller. he will send a bb86.

Maybe too late but here is a ZRACE crank with a Sigeyi PM:

I tested both separately and they are good.

I ordered the sigeyi power meter with cranks  + the entire  sensah empire 2x11 Groupset including the rotors, for 500usd on eBay. Thank you everyone

What brakes did you choose ? JUIN, ZTTO, ZRACE, another one ?
With JAGWIRE compressionless hoses, the braking is surprisingly good with ZTTO and ZRACE.
And the Sensah empire groupset is great too.

I chose the zrace.

For anyone interested in knowing how I got such a good price.

Look at the sellers from China
Send them an offer, even if the listing does not give you the option of sending an offer.

They are usually open to negociate.

The z race cranks came packaged with the sensah empire group set.

The seller was also selling the sigiyi power meter. I asked him to include it for a good price.

Question for all,

my ltk-268 frame from longteng requires a bb86 bottom bracket.

I purchased a cheap bb86 from sigiyi/zrace with my crankset.

Is it worth paying 30-50$ to upgrade to a Shimano BB86 Bottom Bracket or something similar?

BB72-41 or RS500-PB

Ride that BB until it wears out. Then replace it with something better. There are lots of choices, Shimano is far from the only game in town.
