Hi guys,
sorry for the absence, took a moment to recover from the race :-).
@bartturner:
- Unfortunately the No-Q Aero has the same issue in compact. It's due to the chain ring being fully enclosed between the bolts, this collides with the battery compartment. We don't recommend the modification because it voids the warranty of the chain ring. I ride like this, though.
- If you switch to a Q-Ring or any other chain ring you don't need to modify anything on the power meter. Just install the ring. No re-calibration is required.
- Regarding the Praxis chain rings: it's exactly as rbrnut writes - thanks for the help! - if you buy the sensor with rings pre-installed you just need to install the sensor on your 3D+ cranks. With the 110BCD unit you can choose the compact (50-34) or semi-compact (52-36).
- Regarding the tool: unfortunately the Shimano tool won't work. It's pretty much the inverse of how Rotor made the lock ring
@Tsarbomba:
- The Lightning crank theoretically would work. I haven't seen a BBRight bottom bracket for them, though (the new P3 is a BBRight frame). If you have the Dura Ace version of the new P3 you have a very simple option: you can upgrade the 3DF cranks that come with the bike by just getting our power meter for $879 and the installation tool you're good to go. That's going to be your most cost-effective approach.
@Y-Tri:
I had a great race, better than I ever hoped, thanks for asking :-). Came in in 9:16:58. Suffered on the second half of the run but had good biking legs :)
Have a good start to the week,
Nicolas
