I bought the Magene TEO with the 515 spider powermeter as well.
But my driveside crankarm comes loose after every 10-15 km

Anyone experienced something similar? Solutions?
Thanks

I dont have this problem, I used thread lock and torqued to spec.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Magene TEO Crankset with P515 power meter
« on: March 30, 2026, 12:04:02 PM »
I recently bought the Magene TEO crankset with P515 power meter. I was previously running a Lexon carbon crankset with the Ryet Power meter, but due to the issues with the power meter I wanted to move on. With the lack of Easton style crank power meters that are accurate, I decided to go with the magene option. Ive run the Magene P505 on my gravel bike for a few seasons, and use the magene radar, overall Im please with the quality of their components.

For the Magene crankset and power meter, packaging was nice, installation went great, not issues. Torquing of the main crank bolt was easy, not indication of issues that the Lexon crank suffers from. The chain ring bolt they supply are nice and keyed to use allen key on the back side, this makes toquing to spec much easier then the typical slotted backside. Ride test to come, just waxing a fresh chain.

If you can only get get a certain amount of insertion of the seat post, and the restriction is caused by a constricting frame, you could cut the seat post shorter. I'm not sure what the minimum insertion amount that is required to maintain structural integrity, maybe someone else can chime in on that.

I picked up Aliexpress Velotoze about half the price of the branded ones. Quality is good.

They're good frames. I have a few thousand km on my GR02, including 2x BWR events that were very rough.

Thanks! I’ve noticed that many T47a bottom brackets list compatibility with shell widths ranging from 77–79 mm or even 77–83 mm (like this one: https://shorturl.at/XVylJ). The BB shell width on the Factor Ostro VAM is 77.5 mm, and I’m using a Shimano crankset, so I need a 24 mm spindle diameter.

Also, do you happen to have a link to your saddle? I’m only finding Ryet options, which look similar to Specialized.

I ordered this one in 155 width, not sure its available from this seller anymore. I swear Ive seen this saddle around for less though.

I used this BB https://wheelsmfg.com/bottom-brackets/t47a/t47a-abec-3-bb-for-29mm-cranks-black.html  V2 ostro should have same 79mm width as V1

I bought black inc bar tape from factor for my build.

For the saddle ive been using the 3d printed power saddle on Ali on a few of my bikes. I like it.

I've picked these cranks up but got the aluminum DUB axle, we will see if this help with this flexibility issue.

Looks like yoho bikes or rocking bikes on AliExpress are doing just that - last chance is AliExpress admin - but don’t hold out any luck


Anyone know of any good sellers of handlebars?

It would be interesting to see if you can get the V2 version handlebars, they look like the updated design. I had my eyes peeled but cant seem to just buy the bars.
