Which power meter for the RSL? Anyone running a PM now? SRM or Quarq - which cranks? Comments or suggestions appreciated.

MemberI have compact srm mated to hollowgram cranks on RSL. I also run compact FSA lite srm on my compact. Both work very well and both bikes have Di2 on them. If going with Quarq, I would get rotor 3D+, it was my first choice but the wait was too long (Quarq did not have cranks and I had to wait for 6 months).

MemberIf you want to have a power meter on multiple bikes and don't want to spend a lot of money, consider an iBike Sport or Pro. The difference between the two is the software and the ability to download profiles into the device from your computer. Having started with the sport and upgrading to the pro, I can tell you I wish I had the pro right away. It is a lot easier to make changes on the computer and download it into the device then trying to make the changes right on the device. They start at $400 and go up to $550 for the pro. There is even an aero model for a little more money. They are accurate to within 1.5% which compares to any other top notch power meter like SRM, Quarq, or PowerTap. With the pro software, you can download software upgrades at your home and set up multiple profiles for different bikes much easier. You can even adjust the profile for multiple wheel sets for the same bike. It doesn't work well for mountain bikes though.

Not running a power meter, but I know the president and many of the employees of Quarq personally and maybe being a bit biased, but I'd go that route. They are great people that are passionate about cycling making a great product right here in the Black Hills of South Dakota and stand behind their product 100%. Now that they have merged with Sram, their supply issues should be reduced/eliminated and their power meter integrates nicely with the Sram cranks. And, FWIW, their MTB version should be out shortly.
Actually, I would buy a meter from them, but I don't really wanna know how little power I put out...
