Hi,

I am looking for a quarq Powermeter and cranks fitted with 48/32 chainrings and compatible for Shimano GRX 2 x 11 DI2. Frame is a 2020 Specialized Diverge Expert (BSA BB).

Anybody using or has such setup? Or is there another combination on the market?
I only could find the FSA powerbox carbon but quite pricy in Europe.

I'm running a 33T inner ring from Gearoop of Taiwan + 48T Caron-Ti AXS on my DZero DUB.

You may try their 32T for Shimano 110BCD cranks (R9100/R8000) on Quarq DFour. On paper, it should work but I don't have experience.

Thanks for your Tip, finally bought a Dzero, Quarq carbon crank and Specialized 50/34 chainrings.
Shifting is far better than with previous Praxis 48/32 rings.

Is that thing round?
It look a bit square-ish from the picture.

It is not perfectly round from my basic pixel measuring skills. I measure 1.02:1. Curious to hear whether you can actually feel the difference.

Looks like it needs to not be round to fit the asymmetrical bolt-hole pattern. An interesting option for lower gearing on Shimano road.
