power2max NGeco ROTOR ALDHU Carbon Road Power Meter Crankset

The NGeco is the newest model in the power2max line-up. With features such as dual leg power measurement, ANT+/Bluetooth SMART compatibility and left/right power balance, the power2max NGeco ROTOR ALDHU Carbon Road Power Meter Crankset comes fully-loaded. The NGeco is accurate to +/- 2.0% in all environmental conditions and is easy to use with features such as auto-zero and accelerometer-based cadence measurement. In fact, there is no other power meter that provides dual-leg power measurement plus these other features at this price point!

In addition, this power meter crankset uses ROTOR’s first ever carbon crank arms! The ALDHU Carbon Crankset is crazy light, weighing 100 grams less than the ALDHU aluminum model. In addition, vertical and horizontal stiffness had been increased by 11% and 36%, respectively.

Advice From Our Staff:

This is a more expensive power meter with the carbon crank arms, but it’s also lightweight and stiff. It measures power from both legs, is accurate and very reliable. If it’s in your budget, we highly recommend it. We use power2max power meters on many of our own bikes.

Professional Assembly (Optional) power2max Build Checklist

We are happy to professionally assemble your power meter crankset if you select this option when ordering. This ensures your crankset is correctly built and saves you time. Professional assembly includes:

  • Mount the power meter to the cranks and tighten to factory specifications
  • Apply multi-purpose bicycle grease where necessary
  • Install chainrings on the power meter (if chainrings are ordered)
  • Apply power2max decal

Please note – while we tighten everything to factory specs, it is still your responsibility to routinely check your power meter crankset to make sure all bolts and nuts remain securely fastened.

 

Other Versions to Consider

Upgraded NG Version: While the NGeco you are viewing on this page is our go-to version for most cyclists, please note we also have the upgraded power2max NG ROTOR ALDHU Carbon Road Power Meter Crankset. The NG features slightly better accuracy, a rechargeable battery, a longer warranty and some additional training metrics.

Aluminum NGeco Version: We also have the power2max NGeco ROTOR ALDHU Road Power Meter Crankset which features ROTOR aluminum crank arms. This version is more affordable, but the aluminum crank arms are not quite as nice. An advantage to the aluminum version however is they come in both 24 mm and 30 mm spindle sizes.

Compatibility

Chainrings: The power fits 110 BCD 5-bolt, 130 BCD 5-bolt or 110 BCD 4-bolt chainrings based on the version ordered. In many cases, you can use your existing chainrings assuming they use the same configuration as the power meter you order.

The 110 BCD 4-Bolt version is compatible with all Shimano 4-bolt chainrings, including Shimano 12-speed chainrings.

What is BCD?: BCD (bolt circle diameter) is simply the diameter of a circle that passes through the centers of the bolt holes in your chainring. The BCD is usually stamped right on the chainring as either 110 or 130. It is important to know what BCD your crankset is because assuming you want to use your existing chainrings on your new power meter, you need to order the correct BCD.

Bottom Bracket: This power meter fits 30 MM bottom brackets. If you currently have a 30 MM crankset on your bike, you should be able to re-use your existing bottom bracket. However, if you are changing spindle sizes, you will need to replace your bottom bracket.

*Power Balance Upgrade

The power2max NGeco measures power from both legs right out of the box. However, with power balance, you can see how much power each leg is generating individually. If this information is important to you, you can choose to upgrade the power meter at any time. (Please note, you can also purchase the NG version of the power2max which comes with this feature unlocked, along with a rechargeable battery and a longer 5-year warranty.)

You can upgrade your NGeco using the power2max app once you receive the power meter. The cost to upgrade is 50 euros.
