1kTT Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Hi All, I have had to make a tough call re power meters for the Epic. I am just not convinced that I want to take my chances with the Ergomo and Isis crank for the whole race so I have decided to fit XTR and go powerless. It will be very tough as I think that power meters are a great pacing tool for MTB but I just cant take the reliability risk. If I get stuck with 100k's to go and a crank that has come loose or busted BB, theer is no way for the Shimano guys to assist. Are any other hubbers planning on using power meters in the Epic ?
bruce Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 I know Frank from Bicycle Power Trading was very wary about trying out the new Powertap at the Epic - being a brand new product it would be a brave person to try it in such a race. I guess the benefit though is that a wheel is fairly easy to replace.Would be a good test of the powertap, that is for sure.
