Not really, it wouldn’t be good for my asthma. But, whatever they are hitting, it must be choice, because $1199 for dual-sided power might have been a reasonable price back when they started working on these pedals, but with everyone slashing prices the last few months. It’s not any more.
Some of course would argue that SRM is “first to market” with the X-Power, and that is true if we narrowly define “market” as only containing SPD compatible power meter pedals. I would remind these folk, SRM included, that the market here is actually for power meters, and the price here taking a nose dive. You can actually get two 4iiii dual-sided 105 cranks (yeah, crank included) for the same price. So unless you love SRM, absolutely require the flexibility to move the PM between bikes, and are comfortable plopping $1199 in a consumable item, I just don’t get it…
Cheap power meter pedals, on the other hand, I do get…
