In order to facilitate your purchase of the crank arm, we need to confirm the following information with you:1.May I ask what specific specifications of crank arms you would like to purchase? We have crank arms in 165MM, 167.5MM, 170MM, 172.5MM, and 175MM sizes available
2.The price of a pair of PESP505 crank arms is 90 USD, and you also need to purchase a pair of matching left side cover screws and three O-rings for 5 USD
3. According to the previous experience, the shipping cost will exceed 20 usd dollars. If you accept the price, please send me your address, receiver name, phone number, the post code . I will check with our shipping agent and send you the exact shipping cost. And we accept USD via Paypal. When you receive the package, please arrange the custom clearance fee yourself.

I tried to use the Magene powermeter with 50/34 pass quest chainrings but unfortunately it won't shift onto the big chainring. I tried different adjustments for days but can't get it to work. With the original Chainrings from Shimano it will shift without any problems.

Has anyone a different working recommendation for a 12 speed Shimano ultrgra di2 which is working with the Magene Powermeter?
I would really appreciate it.

I have 11s dura Ace and changed chainrings to stone 50/34 and it works even better then 52/36 dura Ace.

I am using the version for 12s https://a.aliexpress.com/_EG6wEOU

Did anybody buy a new preload screw from Magene? I asked them via email and they charge 5 USD for it which is reasonable. But they ask for more than 20 USD for shipping to germany which i think is a little steep and doesn’t even include the import fees.

Is there any way to get it cheaper?

Maybe try geoid official store. I've bought the cranset from them and when I had a problem with preload screw I wrote to them and they've send me a new for free, just had to buy some fake auction do 4$ so AliExpress shipping was covered.

Has anybody else had any calibration issues with their unit?

When I first received the power meter, every time I calibrated it, it gave a calibration value of 10-12. The power numbers it gave were reliable and as expected.

However, after a few months the battery started to run low and so I charged it back to 100%. Since then, it has given calibration values of 14-16 and has given me much lower power numbers (40-50W lower).

Thank you will try that out! I‘ve sent magene my shipping adress and now they want 5 usd for the screw and 29 usd for the shipping which is ridiculous.

I am running the Magene PES P505 Base Power Meter with Pass Quest 48/35 chainrings on a 12-speed Shimano 105 di2 setup.
Works just fine...

Could you maybe sent a linkt to the chainrings you bought? Maybe I will buy another set and try it out. Because as I said I tried them on different bikes now with the Shimano Crank and Magene Crank, so I am pretty sure there must be something off with the chainrings I got.

Seems I ordered these
https://aliexpress.com/item/1005005046221641.html
but just now I realize they are advertised as 9/10/11-speed ordinary chain in the Cycling Tribe Store.
But then I also bought these
https://aliexpress.com/item/1005006649110221.html
and they are advertised as 9/10/11/12-speed ordinary chain in the Your Bike Store.

Both in use with 12-speed Shimano Ultegra (on an Ultegra crank) and 105 (Magene PES P505 Base Power Meter), no issues with both.
