betaboy Posted March 2, 2023 Share Wow. Amazing that after so many years, The Mullet is making a huge comeback! That’s called the ASX “air brake” used for technical descents, right? 👀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise apparently same (shitty for the front) shifting performance. Only upside in my opinion is hoods design. I haven't ridden my Rival ones yet but from what I've seen they are a lot closer to what shimano offers (which is far better). But the looks... man this looks cheap... The current Rival crank actually looks better IMO DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaMc Posted March 3, 2023 Share Further innovation from SRAM: with the power meter integrated into the chainring is this a new technology, the disposable power meter?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is the power meter done, once the battery reached its max recharging cycles, or chain rings are worn - which ever happens first? Edited March 3, 2023 by Mongoose!

Mongoose! Posted March 3, 2023 Share Hopefully someone on YouTube will come forward with a DIY solution to separate the power meter spider from the worn chainrings? Edited March 3, 2023 by Mongoose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These take 2032 batteries and those chainrings are bulletproof (as long as you stay on top or your chain wear) Edited March 3, 2023 by Jbr DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my point stands though, when you replace you chainring, you now have to replace a power meter unnecessarily Edited March 3, 2023 by MaMc Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
