Switching quarq powermeter between specialized cranksets
Moderator: robbosmans
I would just switch the whole crank over otherwise it notmally takes 3 rides or so for the quarq to stabilise after a ring change

Super easy... if you have the tool for the lock ring.
As above, I'd keep chainrings the same if possible due to the period of time required to get stable readings, assuming crank lengths are the same, why not just use the one crank for both bikes?
The Specialized cranks are a modular system, the spider, cranks and rings are all individual pieces so you can swap out compatible parts as needed.

Preferably yes, and check the pinch bolt periodically for fatiuge.

If you can run the same crank on both bikes, just move the crank over. Don't bother swapping the spiders.
That said, Quarqs used to have issues with needing re-calibration when changing chainrings. Quarq used to have a chart explaining which units needed recalibration for going to different combinations of chainrings. I don't know if that is still the case, but you will want to look that up.
