QuarqSRAM AXS Power Meter Spider(Return to Product Page)

After having a Quarq power meter spider on my road bike for over the last 8+ years and never having a single issue with it, it was a no-brainer to go with another Quarq for my new gravel ride. I greatly prefer two-sided measurement over the single-side as it gives much more accurate numbers overall. I have an older Stages crank arm on another bike and those readings are always much different than my Quarqs, most likely because of measurement being on my weaker leg. The Quarq was a breeze to install and set up and has been flawless over the first couple of months thus far. I expect many years of worry-free use based on my past experience with Quarq.

Once installed and paired to the sram app and my garmin computer everything works seamlessly. It makes it easy to get true power data and left/right stats.

I really wanted to start down the power data rabbit hole, but didn't want to spend what it cost for power meter pedals. Enter the Quarq spider piwer meter. Super easy to install and less than half the price of pedals! So happy I went this route. BikeTiresDirect had a great price and as always their shipping and customer service are world class.

This is a very easy power meter to install, like most, is very reliable and has error is low. I prefer a crank of pedal based power meter as they give you left/right balance measures. the fact that it self calibrates is a plus, as you no longer have to stop and recalibrate every ride.

I put this on a gravel bike built up with dub wide Apex cranks and eagle derailleur. I contacted SRAM first to make sure this would be ok with that setup and their response was that it had not officially been tested in that configuration, but should work just fine. With an obviously new chainring for this spider and this spider I can confirm that it does work, was a breeze to put on and configure. Its a good looking solution that gives power for both sides. A huge upgrade to the Apex single arm power meter.

Really easy to install. Integrates perfectly with the AXS cranks and connects instantly to the app. Connects easily to Garmin (530 in my case). Not much else to say. It looks great, connects great, and works great. It's heavier than the one-piece dual Force chainring (which doesn't have a spider) but that's a given. I was looking for the most cost-effective power meter and since I was already embedded in the AXS eco-system this made the most sense. I'm satisfied with it.

First, this was installed on my second bike. I am coming from a set of Garmin Vector 3 pedals, I have had to have Garmin replace 2 pairs for various reasons. This meter was for my new bike because I was tired of having to swap pedals and return them, a spider pm should ameliorate this. As of this time I have just over 1000 miles and they have performed flawlessly.

I admittedly did not install the unit myself, I was having work done and let the lbs do this for me so no opinion about difficulty of install. Setup with my Garmin 1030 was a snap, if you have added tech to your bike or phone, you can do this, an unexpected aspect was the need to create a SRAM account for updates and the like.

I enjoy the meter, i did run it along side my Garmin pedals and the units were in close agreement with one another. I would likely purchase for future SRAM gear set bikes but truthfully it was easy to pull the trigger when I had a few hundred bucks in store credit.

As always thanks to BTD for fast shipping and great customer service!

Much better than using pedals!

Just like all other Quarq's crank-spider-based power meter, this one just works. I have had Quarq's power meter for many years and you can always count on their superb customer support if you ever run into any issue.

I purchased this to go with a new SRAM Force AXS eTap build. I wanted power and cadence built into the drive train (instead of adding power pedals).

This is perfect. It has the advantages of being dual-sided power, and a long lasting battery. I'm glad I got this.

I'm not racing, so power numbers are just "nice to have" for me

I have known for awhile that I needed power meter in my life. Being able to afford the right one has been the problem. This solved my problems. First of all it was easy to install and set up. I worry about buying online and then going to LBS when I screw up installation. Not this time. It has paired with my garmin computer and the data has been amazing! I am so glad I didn't have to buy an entire crankset.

Very quick & easy to install. More accurate than crank-based and a very affordable option overall. Quarq makes great power meters! Great addition to my AXS drivetrain.

Straightforward installation with accurate power readings and flawless connection to Garmin device.

Very accurate power meter and allows me to run my Sram Red Crankset with larger chainrings. In my case, I run custom Aero Coach chainrings in size 58 (107 BCD) 1 x 12 speed set up on my TT bike. The shipping was fast and the product works perfectly with easy to sync power meter data to my Wahoo computer and on the online Zwift platform as well.

Power meter is accurate and has stayed within 3% of my smart trainer during workouts. Left right balance has helped improve my stroke.

solid power meter at a great price. easy install, no issues synching up to sram app or karoo 2. i appreciate the design and engineering that went into the whole axs system. i wish all my bikes had it.

You get the same power reading as usong 2 petal power meeters for a lower cost.

Easy to install.

I went this route because I've heard great things on the AXS reviews about accuracy and reliability out there. Indeed its Accurate, easy to install, and no problems since. Arrived on time and unscathed- plan to eventually put one on all my bikes that run SRAM and would definitely go through BTD again to make that happen.

Been training all winter. This is the only tool for me and the HRM. BTD is the place to buy. They always provide the best price around.
