Check the pinned comment on the YT video "Update: Test ride 2 done and the numbers are looking lots better. 2 x15 min threshold (340w) and was about 1.2% off my Magene pedals. Maybe it really did just need breaking in properly!"

Maybe thinkRider rep contacted him which fixed the numbers 😁

This is an interesting timeline to observe. I really hope they've resolved the PP5 issues with the PP6. I won't believe it until I see it myself.

I had issues with two Nexga S1 powemeters that needed several days after delivery to stabilize and produce reliable measurements. I wonder if the issue he is experiencing with his PP6 are related.

I sure hope so because if that's the only problem, this could be an amazing proposition for value

If you're able to give us a solid review with a comparison to another PM, then I say go for it. It would do this forum a great service if you find out for us that there's a decent PM cheaper than the Geoid PM500
