Question for you since you have home installed it- could it be temporarily installed on a crank using something like 3m releasable tape?
Thinking about using it for the winter on the trainer bike then attaching it to one of my road bikes come spring for outdoor use.
Wasnt sure if a thin layer like the releasable tape somehow messes with power readings?
If this is isnt possible, I will end up attaching the PM to a crank on one of my outdoor bikes, then moving that crank and bottom bracket to the trainer bike. Just hoping to reduce work.
You don't need the install kit. Two part epoxy and a 10KG weight (I used a box of cat litter) is all you need. I originally had the meter attached with Scotch Automotive Molding tape to make sure it worked and didn't foul my chainstays. I calibrated it and did a few rides before I permanently attached it with epoxy. The readings appear to be fairly consistent between the methods.
