Frequently asked questions

How does the power meter work?

The iQsquare power meter pedal is equipped with a thin film strain gauge and a load cell. The strain gauge is directly deposited on the axle and is molecularly bonded to the surface. This is a highly accurate and fully automated process which results in absolutely identical power meters during production.

Should I choose a single or a double pedal?

A single-sided power meter pedal measures the power produced by one leg and multiplies the measurement by two. This is a good solution for your budget, however it is very common to have a difference in produced power between the left and right leg, which lies in the range of 5 - 20% and results in a large measurement error. This measurement fault is not so important when comparing your own results, but comparing power data with other riders can be misleading. 
Therefore, it is recommended to use a power meter pedal set for a precise measurement.
