Hi, thanks for publising your results. I have the xcadey gen2 144bcd, used exclusively on track. Based on GPLamas review of the gen1, I did some testing dual recording with assioma duos, and found that I had to apply a negative 4% offset to the Xcadey PM for it to line up with the Assiomas. Other than that it seems pretty stable. Besides than some funky g-forces in the turns, this is a also very stable environment with no coasting, no bumps, and almost zero temp change.

I noticed in the GPLama review of the gen2 that you mentioned that there were no option to turn off auto zero. My PM has that option (on fw 41).  I cannot find it in the app, but on my Edge 830 it is hidden under "senor details" I believe. Also its not available immediately, but pops up maybe 30 sec after the PM has connected. Wonder if that could have influenced the results in some way.

I am planning on ordering my frame soon and am trying to decide on size. I am 177.5cm and am trying to decide between the 52 and 54. My current bike is:
  • Poseidon X Gen 1 Size Large
  • 25 Degree setback seat post
  • -6 degree 80mm Redshift Shockstop stem
  • 165mm crank

When I compare the geometry between the GR201 and the Poseidon X it looks like the 52 would match up better:

But I also noticed that the geometry of the GR201 seems pretty similar to a Specialized Crux and when I enter my height and shin length in their size calculator it recommends a 56 in the Crux which lines up more with the 54 in the GR201:

I haven't been riding gravel/road long enough to know if my current bike fits me well so I am leaning towards going with the 54.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I would go with the 54, and adjust with a shorter stem if needed. You get some more stack, and typically also have more space for frame bag and bottles with the larger frame.

Ben Delaney featured my bike at The Traka on his latest video: https://youtu.be/G-7kWbkYPfw?t=902

Apologies for the incoherence, I was COOKED.

Awesome! What top tube bag is that? Just ordered a frame myself from Tantan/Jessie :)
