I'm looking for power meter investment thoughts - I'm a big DCrainmaker fan so I'm aware of the
options. I like to buy once, pick and company, and stick with it.
Set up:
Road bike: 105 11 speed, specialized OSBB
Tribike: DA 10 speed, BSA68 (cervelo p1 - it was called P2SL when I picked it up)
Race wheels: HED jet60 10 speed. (these get used fairly often even when not "racing")
Power options I'm thinking about:
Quarq GXP + two new BBs (I'd get the praxis ones) to covert both bikes to GXP. I'd also
send the HED rear for 11 speed conversion. This will cost more in the short term, but I can still use my nice wheels on either bike with power.
PT: If I didn't have the Jets I would get a PT and wheel cover without question. I could
get power from either bike, but my HED jet60 rear wheel would likely never be used again.
I would be tempted to then save for a jet90 PT I expect. More expensive in the long run.
I like to buy "once" so to speak and keep my equipment for a long time. I mostly ride my road bike these days. I am turning into one of those "hidden" triathletes that only does a race once a year or so, but
I've been doing this sport long enough to know I'm in it for the long term. What do people think is the best
investment to maximize the equipment I've already spent money on? Anyone have issues with the OSBB to GXP conversion BB? Or Quarq on a Roubaix?
