Way too expensive. For this amount of money I can also upgrade to a Dura Ace Power meter crank and keep my riding position and thus knees happy in the process.
Many years ago now, I donated to the IQ^2 Kickstarter project to make a power meter to fit between the crank arm and the pedal axle. Perfect for use with Speedplay pedals. After IQ^2 revealed they could not make it work, they embarked on a standard pedal with integrated power meter. Not only are they of no use to me, I am yet to receive anything from them! I could have just waited for these.
Never heard of that one. Just looked it up. It really pushed the pedal outboard. It really would have added to the q-factor. The Kickstarter sure made it seem like they already had it figured out.
I did like the sound of those but I figured I'd wait until they went into full production... and as you know we're still waiting :-( I think they did push the pedal outboard by a not-insignificant 16mm (per side!) so perhaps that was seen as too much. Of course once they'd abandoned that idea they'd lost their USP so were in a much more competitive market... It's a shame, I'd have gone for them to put on my gf's ebike as she's been curious to know how much of the total power was hers. She may not have liked the answer but that's another matter :-)
@@The1trueDave They found in testing that they just didn't work. But these pedals from Speedplay mount the power meter on the pedal axle. Not exactly the same design but Speedplay have achieved it, while after I think 4 years, IQ^2 have still achieved nothing.
I have been using the Favero Assioma Duo pedals for over 6 months now and love them. These Wahoo pedals seem to have the same features at a much higher price point ($750 vs $999) with the only difference I can find is the pedal style. Curiously love to know if Wahoo has some feature or capability that the Favero doesn't have to justify the price jump other than pedal style?
Other than the battery level indicators with colors, doesn't appear so. My Bolt tells me when the pedals are getting low which I love. And they last a very long time. The only gripe I have about the Assiomas are that they spin wildly which can make them difficult to clip in in certain situations. Other than that, they've been fantastic. I do think these Speedplays will do well but the price point, as you mentioned, is a bit high imo.
I have speedplay for all my bikes and the price for these is fecking BANANAS. Unless I can buy these at 60% off I'll never buy them, and probably any other wahoo pedal also.
Can the batteries be charged without having to remove them from the crank arm, and what prevents dirt/water from getting into the charging port of the meter(s)?
I am an old Speedplay user. I transitioned to Garmin with the Kleo pedal because I thought it was a great power solution. I have knee problems, however, that have come back. My physical therapist, who knows sports injuries well, recommends that I go back to Speedplay for the additional float. I have just bought these, and yes as commented below, it is a lot of money, but not for what I will be getting. I remember fifteen years ago when the best power meters were several thousand dollars more. I am looking forward to these and to relief on my right knee. Time will tell but I will report back.
Well, it's 1K. However zero pedal itself is 230. Spindle + power meter = 770. Assioma duo shi is 590. I know it's still expensive but not crazy expensive. By the way, I recently bought a powerlink duo 25% cheaper than regular price. 750 for zero pedal + spindle + power meter. Not bad, right?
I did more than 100W more in my last sprint session. Should I go for the sprint jersey in the Tour of Britain? 🙃 Just joking. Interesting an a fair bit cheaper based in suggested retail price than the Garmins. Nice USB charging box btw. Please share more details about that, Alex.
Here’s a tip: unless the dual sided pedal is a must have and you don’t want SPD cleats for some reason, save yourself the money and get a pair of Favero Assioma Duos or Duo-Shi’s.
How do these affect the Q factor..I have been riding Speedplay pedals for 25 years and have my cleats outbound to bring my feet in closer. I’d worry about my shoes rubbing on the power meter unit. Thoughts?
Major reason why I won't be using these sadly. 2mm extra doesn't sound much but if you're really sensitive to these changes like me (not obsessive - some people can just feel slight differences and these affect their riding) maybe these won't be suitable. I also have my cleats outbound all the way and would even benefit from a shorter pedal axle than the standard Speedplay, but getting hold of these are near impossible. Will be looking at a crankarm-based powermeter as an alternative.
I just got the assioma duos a month ago for 645usd. I'm still struggling with clipping in at lights, b/c before I only ever used spd. These look like an hassle to mount the cleats and my patience is low.
@@kimwarner6050 the look or shimano style pedals. Just that general triangleish shape is easier to clip in for beginners. Because it’s one direction and gives you a better sense when clipping in
@@kimwarner6050 I've not experienced the xpedo cleats but looking at the red and black versions on the site they look similar to the Look brand. If you could physically compare the cleats you may see a difference? I've used Look cleats with my Assioma Duo pedals for 2+ years now and sometimes still get it wrong mainly when I'm tired. The initial clip in process is different compared to the Shimano too because there is more grip on the spd underside I got into the habit of pushing off with my supporting leg. I soon learnt I couldn't do this as much with Look as my foot would regularly slip. So now I push with the clipped in foot and away I go. Also got used to pedaling one legged if I fluffed a clip in. 😂😂
Same. My regular loop requires a couple of pedestrian bridge crossings. Some years ago I got fed up with walking in Speedplay cleats and switched over to one of my extra pairs of mtn bike pedals. Granted... it could be considered a bit of a contradiction to want a power meter on my bikes yet I'm willing to accept the drop in power transfer using mtn bike pedals... but still... this is only for my own curiosity since at 52 I will not be challenging anyone for many KOMs.
@@brianrichardson5310 I wouldn’t advice to do so. Since they’re clearly not made to be opened up. Mine had issues after a couple of months, but this issue should be resolved (Wahoo’s words).

Sucks that you had a bad experience with them, and I'm glad you found a pedal more to your liking.

Judging by how many pros have used Speedplay over the years, odds are they felt the same way, too.

1000 currency unit reasons to not buy them. Don't get me wrong I am a fan of Speedplay (already didn't liked what Wahoo did when they released revamped pedals under their name). But for this amount of money I rather buy a proven crank-arm power meter (Dura Ace for instance, which is an upgrade as well) and don't get to fiddle around again with my position on the bike again, with my knees as the victims.
Another comment. I was hoping that the more players entered the Power meter field of play, the more competitive it would become and as a result the prices would drop. Sad to see that, that is definitely not the case.
