Of course there is a 160mm version.

Or you can also find one on aliexpress:

Then pick whatever spider based power meter and call it a day.

AFAIK there is not a single cinch powermeter that performed consistently well.

Chinese PM, perhaps. The power2max cinch power meter is not that much more expensive than the Chinese options.

Power2max? Sigeyi AXO also seems to be generally well-regarded, but it might be discontinued by now. I don't know if the AXO SL has had its bugs/flaws fixed by now or not.

ETA: Can see poster above me already mentioned Power2max. Point still stands, though :)
