Description

Pioneer Shimano Ultegra R8000 Dual-Sided Crankset

The Pioneer Shimano Ultegra R8000 Dual-Sided Crankset is Pioneer’s newest crankset-based power meter. Featuring Pioneer’s 12-point force measurement for high accuracy and advanced metrics, this power meter can measure pedaling forces every 30 degrees, for 12 points of measurement per pedal revolution. This level of measurement is unique to Pioneer power meters. When paired with a Pioneer Cycle Computer, you get access to Pioneer’s HDPower Metrics including Force Vector analysis, Torque Vector and Pedaling Efficiency power metrics.

In addition, with a power sensor on both the left and right crank arms, the power meter can measure independent left and right leg power. This is a very helpful feature for advance training metrics.

The Pioneer runs off two easy to change CR2032 batteries and gets approximately 180 hours of battery life. The unit is lightweight, adding only 62 grams to the weight of the crankset and it is both IP66 and IP68 water resistance certified. The Pioneer power meter is both ANT+ and Bluetooth SMART compatible and can be used with the Pioneer Cycle Computer or your favorite head unit.

    The power meter is great so far. I’ve had it and have using it for about 3 weeks and so far so good. It is very stable and doesn’t go in and out like my Garmin Vector pedals.
    The Pioneer seems to be much more accurate then Garmas well. I have enjoyed having the meter and it has surpassed my expectations.
    I would certainly recommend it to other people looking for a power meter.

    I am very grateful for their response.
    I live in Japan and would have paid over $ 1000 if I bought it in Japan.
    I was very happy that I could buy it for $ 700.
    They are still working fine.
    Also, they responded quickly after I placed the order, so I was able to get it in a short time.
