Product Description

To give you a sense of how Quarq is already on top of technology and moving forward, take a look at this CinQo Saturn SRAM S975 Wireless Powermeter. The S975 arms are new to SRAM's non-series cranks, made of hollow carbon, and 60g lighter than last year's S900 crankarms. Quarq isn't waiting for the market to move before they employ an upgrade; they're moving along, trying to keep up with or ahead of changes. Quarq is one of SRAM's power partners. The CinQo Saturn spider is the brainchild of James Meyer, an engineer and aspiring triathlete with time on his hands and no money, so he tried to figure out how the SRM did its magic in order to build and ride his own powermeter for a fraction of the cost. The Saturn is the fruit of that labor, so named for the ring that sits in front of the small chainring. CinQo for the five-arm spider. Several years of development and countless miles of testing behind it, this is no beta-version, but a full-fledged, proven meter. Thanks to Area Network Technology (ANT), this is a wireless power meter that works with every power-compatible ANT+ Sport equipped central processing unit (aka bike computer) on the market. And, as a result, we're selling this without a head unit so you can pick your dashboard of choice. ANT+, if you haven't been following wireless technology, is the hottest thing in bike computers and is rapidly consigning wires to the dustbin of history. In order for this pairing to occur, there needs to be an ANT+ transmitter hidden in the crank spider, which there is. The CinQo unit has ten strain gauges, each with two grids, embedded in the spider. That's 20 measurements of the flex/displacement resulting from pedaling torque. The accuracy is +/- 2%, which is pretty much the margin of error for all power meters these days. The crank spider, just like the SRM, is turned on by a magnet placed on the frame near the inside of the spider that trips a reed switch which then turns on the unit.
