After two years of riding, I finally gave up. For the first two or three months, I heard clicking/squeaking noises. I thought it was the bottom bracket, maybe the Ninja-Token bearings, maybe the wheels – lots of different ideas. But it was the left arm of a Magene P505 Base. After reassembling it, it helped for 200-300 km, then the noise reappeared. I ordered a new bolt, but that didn't solve the problem.

I like the look of the P505 Base, and the accuracy is quite good, but the noises coming from inside it finally got annoying, and I gave up. I put it on my indoor trainer and am looking for a new power meter for my outdoor bike.
having the same issues. i'll upload a video to social networks so people are aware of this crappy design. good power accuracy but this completely ruins the experience. also sending complaint email to magene.

hi folks,

i'm undecided between this xcadey and the new ZRACE UNCHAINED PRO Carbon Fiber Power Meter Crankset.

Does anyone have feedback about the zrace?

thank you

thanks @Jantunes for the photos! Keep us updated on the build!

How is the storage compartment lid? Is it secure and easy to latch and unlatch?

heavy! ahah. yes it's easy and it fits in pretty snug.

good to hear. i am planning on building it sramano style. shifters/derailleurs from sram and cassette/chain/cranks from shimano. Someone is raising concerns here of using a big chainring. is it a problem with the position of the front derailleur hanger ?  is a 52/36 at the front unrealistic?

thank you. regarding the finishes, seems pretty flush. it appears they faced the contact areas. the photo where we see internally the "eagle eye", it's the one area that seems not so clean. any reason to worry about it?

another round

990g is the weight of the frame w/o the metal storage cover.
frame seems very sturdy on the frontal area, more than the BB area (but i'm by no means a carbon expert)
fork seems also robust.
love the handlebars design, construction seems ok.
saddle looks comfy, very well finished. can't wait to take it for a ride.

Excellent! Congratulations and thanks for the photo.
Look forward to more updates. 
Is that raw carbon finish or is it painted black?

It's the base UD matte finish (no additional cost).
