Bought a new canyon CF disc with the quarq power meter and was wondering if you can swap JUST the crank arms on this PM model? I cant find a clear answer online but wanted to swap the arms from 170 to 165mm without having to buy a whole new one.

other powermeters like Power2Max are indipendent of the crank arm length
just send an email to tech support

As others have said - hit up their tech support. You can even call and talk to someone - they are super responsive and top notch. If it's a newer DZero - the answer should be yes, but you would have to buy from SRAM anyway - so you're going to wind up talking to their tech support regardless.
Best of luck.

Just to add clarity. Been there done that, like 3-4 times. Other comments are applicable to very old quarq versions that required calibration after doing it. Even then, you could do it at home with an accurate weight. But that has not been the case since I believe Elsa and rikken, which were released like 8 years ago
