IF they do. And Quarq is obviously GXP which is a bb I wouldn’t care to use again vs H2 which all my other bikes have so I went for pedal (Favero Duo Keos) this time and have swapped them many times. That is a genuinely quick job and also means I can have the crank I want. Still got a brand new DA 9100 crank gathering dust on the shelf because of the Quarq PM.
I found my crank, pedal and Wahoo trainer power (once I calibrated the latter) all read within 1-2% of each other. I’m usually very close to 50/50 these days so not sure I need dual sided but I think they’re worth the small extra cost. Never tried Garmin or Shimano. Stages on a number of spin bikes at the local gym seems to read a bit high. I would get Faveros every time.
