Favero Power Meters

Additional Favero Power Meter Info:

Installation

The Assioma PRO RS-2, RS-1, RL-2, RL-1, MX-2 and MX-1 require a 15 mm pedal wrench for installation. These power meters can be moved between bikes quickly and easily.

Before the first ride, Favero power meters do have some one-time set-up steps such as registering them with the app and taking a quick ride to set the installation angles. It’s easy stuff and is outlined in the manual so be sure to give it a quick read.

Weight

Favero power meters are some of the lightest power meter pedals available. The PRO RS pedals weigh only 123.5 grams per pedal while the MX pedals weigh only 191.4 grams per pedal. This is only slightly heavier than a standard non-power meter pedal.

Power Measurement

The Assioma PRO RS-2, RL-2 and MX-2 measure power from both legs as well as left vs. right leg power. This means the power meter pedals can tell you how much power each leg is producing individually. The Assioma PRO RS-1, RL-1 and MX-1 measures left leg power and like all left-side power meters, they double the left leg value in order to approximate your total power.

Special Features

The Favero power meters are the only ones with IAV (Instantaneous Angular Velocity) Power. This special software and integrated three-axis gyroscope results in accuracy of +/- 1.0%. In addition, IAV allows you to use the pedals with oval chainrings without any impact to the accuracy of your data.

Batteries

Favero power meters use rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Battery life can be up to 160 hours for the PRO series, which is very good for this type of battery.

Communication Protocol

Favero power meters transmit data via both the ANT+ and Bluetooth SMART wireless protocols. Therefore, they are compatible with just about any bike computer. You can also use a smartphone or tablet as your head unit.

Accuracy

Featuring IAV Power Technology, Favero power meters are accurate to within +/- 1.0%. This is on par (to slightly better) than the majority of other power meters on the market.

Cadence Detection

Like most power meters, these power meters use an accelerometer to measure cadence. This means you don’t have to worry about attaching a magnet to your frame.

Warranty

Favero power meters come with a two-year manufacturer’s warranty.
