I might return mine lol. The thread is too loose for the riding type I do (racing and lots of climbing).

how to loose? did you put the right thread pitch that you used before?

regarding the power meter, it's funny. I did very detailed comparison, it's here on the forum. Now I'm repeating that to have all the data outdoor. I basically provided data for sprints, all above 1100w, some even more than 1200w, 8 of them. All were almost identical as Favero Assioma Duo. I added again the screenshot, I can provide the fit file.

yes, looks great! :D

the problem is above 1000w..

Why?

i am talking about the power meter..

Why, I did some sprints, 20s X 8, all were above 1000 watts, no issues. Have you tested it or you just make a statement ? I basically added a screen from my workout.

i saw just max 500w.. maybe is the other screenshot where you dont have the watts..

Axles have been tested, also the bottle cages. I'm very pleased and satisfied. For now I can fully recommend the product. All is fine, without any slack, after longer 400w intervals, after sprint, even over 1200w no issues. I know, garmin and compare the watts shows some different values.

the problem is above 1000w..

do you remember the Pogacar interview with Peter Attia when he said that the powermeter he uses (Shimano) was not reliable? Im wondering which one really it is... Even if a top brand like Shimano have some problems... I can deal with a cheap chinese one inaccuracy :D I rode years without it, if sometimes reading could be a bit lower or higher than real I dont think is a big issue that will destroy my training plan...

Thats why they used SRM for the TT bikes with cybrei cranks.. :P

Define cheap. I got my magene powermeter crankset for $250 and its pretty accurate. I consider that cheap, but not bottom of the barrel cheap.

Cheap is 80 to 150 usd for a power meter.. Even 250 usd is cheap for the product itself.. I have one from elilee that cost 300 usd or more and is also not accurate.. 🤦 🤦

Shane,
How are things looking so far with the Coospo one? I'd expect to be identical to the Thinkrider. Is it feeling that same so far?

He already posted on Strava and it seems that he is equally bad..

They sent two EK01 (one alloy spider, one carbon) that both had the same issue. They published a press release proclaiming the issue resolved, follow up testing showed it wasn't.

The bigger issue I see with the EK01 is that their World Tour team are getting different non-commercial versions of these meters. Why?

I know that because I saw it all.. I was just saying that people always try to justify your result as if you had always received a defective one when the problem is really the power meter. As for Elilee, I'm still going to see what they're going to do with mine. 🤦

Wishful thinking, but is it possible that Gplama was sent a dud? Has anyone else tested accuracy post sprint?

At that price point though, I'm not surprised it has some issues.

Whenever he tests one there is always this talk that he may have received a dud one.. When he tested elilee they said the same thing.. I think we have to get it into our heads that true quality has a price. The good example of this is the Chinese bicycle brands that are also getting high prices because they have quality. My impression is that all these power meters are made in the same factory and with the same parts, that's why they all fail!

Hi everyone. Today I compared the readings from Assioma, Tax Neo, and ThinkRider.
The error is around 1%. Overall, I'm very satisfied – I recommend these cranks.

we all aready saw the gplama review.. ahah
