Thx for posting Nuno. I used some copper anti seize, which I didn't clean up. A few issues with installing the PM spider. Had issues wiht the Ti bolts...one of which snapped off but was able to extract out. I torqued to recommended torque, but because the spider interface and the eeWing bolt area wasn't flush, the bolt head was at an angle and 8Nm seems to be too excessive wtih pressure on 50% of the bolt head so I guess that made it snap off. I never had any issues torquing to 8Nm with the Cane Creek spider since it was more flush and even with the bolt head area.
Other than that, fitment was excellent once I got it on...I ended up torque to 4.5Nm and seems fine for a bolt size this small.As mentioned, by removing the attached sticker, its difficult to tell if the spider is reversed or not...but from I'm told, the power reading is flipped. Left is Right.
I haven't taken to the road as I am cleaning off salt encrusted bottom bracket (done while crank was out), repacked grease on headset and hubs.
