Are Rotor Q-Rings worth it?

Q-Rings do not eliminate the dead spots, but they do lighten the load for the weaker areas and transfer that load to the stronger muscles.” “With Q-Rings the pedal stroke remains circular. It is only the rings that are elliptical. This is one reason why the system is an excellent one for trained athletes.

How do you calibrate a rotor power meter?

Push “Calibrate” without any weight on your pedals. The calibration value should show “1000.” After you see 1000 appear on the screen slowly turn the crank counterclockwise two or three turns and place it in a 6 o’clock vertical position again.
