Accurate and affordable power2max NGeco power for your Shimano MTB crankset!
power2max NGeco Shimano MTB Power Meter
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 Shimano MTB Power Meter comes fully-loaded. In addition, 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 MTB power meter that provides dual-leg power measurement plus these other features at only $590!
Key Product Details
Compatibility:
This power2max is compatible with Shimano MTB direct mount cranksets using a 1x chainring. This includes the M9100, MT900-1, M8100, M7100 and M6100. Regarding chainrings, it requires a 104 BCD 4-bolt MTB chainring (which is different than the direct mount chainrings found on many Shimano MTB cranksets). If you don’t already have a 104 BCD 4-bolt chainring, we offer several to choose from. See Compatibility tab for more information.
Power Measurement:
The power2max power meter measures power at the spider and is therefore able to measure power from both legs.
Key Features:
Dual-leg power measurement, accurate to +/- 2.0%, 300-400 hours of battery life, CR2450 user-replaceable battery, left/right power balance with system upgrade, ANT+ and Bluetooth compatibility, auto-zero (automatic calibration). See Specs tab for more information.
Advice From Our Staff:
This is a super solid option for Shimano MTB direct mount cranksets. Sure you have to change your chainring to a 104 BCD version, but this power2max measures power from both legs, is accurate and reliable. We believe the price also represents a good value for what you get. We highly recommend power2max power meters and use them on many of our own bikes.
Options For This Power Meter
Chainline and BCD: This power meter is available in the following chainline options:
- 1X Standard | 104 BCD
- 1X Boost | 104 BCD
Tip – If you have a 148 mm rear hub, your bike has boost spacing. If you have a 142 mm rear hub, your bike has standard spacing.
Lock Ring Tool: This page also allows you to purchase your power meter with the Shimano Direct Mount Lockring Tool, which is required for installation. We recommend you order it unless you already own one.
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 Shimano MTB Power Meter. The NG features slightly better accuracy, a rechargeable battery, a longer warranty and some additional training metrics.
Compatibility
Crankset: The power2max NGeco Shimano MTB Power Meter is compatible with Shimano MTB direct mount cranksets using a 1x chainring such as the M9100, MT900-1, M8100, M7100 and M6100.
Chainrings: This power meter requires a 104 BCD 4-bolt MTB chainring (which is different than the direct mount chainrings found on many Shimano MTB cranksets). If you don't already have a 4-bolt chainring, we offer several different MTB chainrings for Shimano power2max.
The smallest chainring you can use on a power2max MTB power meter is a 30T round or 32T oval.
If you purchase a new chainring with your power meter, we will bolt it on to your power meter before shipping, which will make installation that much easier when you get it.

*Power Balance Upgrade
The power2max NGeco measures power from both legs right out of the box. However, with power balance, you are able to 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.

I have the 12 speed boost version. The chainline is perfect and the powermeter works without issue. I’ve bought two power2max power meters from Power Meter City. They have had stock when other shops have not, are good value, and international shipping has been quick and at reasonable rates.
Power Meter City –
