Power meter Anatomy
I N S TA L L AT I O N
M AG N E T I N S TA L L AT I O N
Quarq power meters measure cadence using a magnet, or if a magnet is not present, by using an accelerometer
that is built into the power meter.
Using a magnet is the best method for measuring cadence; it is accurate to +/- 1.5% regardless of environmental
conditions. When properly installed, the magnet should be in line with the cadence sensors and within 2-8 mm
of the sensor ring. If necessary, magnets may be stacked to achieve the proper distance to the sensor.
NOTIC E
Do not allow the magnet to contact the power meter.
If the magnet becomes dislodged or is removed, the built in accelerometer is automatically enabled.
Using the accelerometer to measure cadence offers the convenience of not having to install a magnet. The
accelerometer was specifically developed for bikes that have limited options for magnet placement. While the
magnet provides the most accurate cadence measurement, the accuracy of the accelerometer is excellent up to
160 rpm and in all environmental conditions except those that produce severe vibrations.
It is easier to install the magnet when the cranks are not installed on the frame.

The BB Cup Mount is only compatible with threaded bottom brackets. It does not work with frames that have
bearings pressed into the bottom bracket (BB30, PF30, etc.). Frames using threaded bottom bracket adapters
(ie. SRAM GXP30 BB Adapter) may use the BB Cup Mount if the mount is installed onto the threaded drive side
bottom bracket cup.
1. If necessary, remove the existing cranks and bottom bracket.
2. Slide the BB Cup Mount over the threads of the drive side bearing cup with the magnet facing away from the
frame.
3. Hold the magnet at the 9 o’clock position while the bottom bracket is tightened to the manufacturer’s
recommended torque.
4. Confirm the magnet is within 2-8 mm (1/16”-3/8”) of the sensor.

The Cable Guide Mount should only be used when the cable guide is fastened with a screw. If the cable guide is
fastened with a rivet, use the Bottom Bracket Cup Mount or Adhesive Putty instead.
NOTIC E
Do not allow the magnet to contact the power meter. When properly installed, the magnet should be in line with
the cadence sensors and within 2-8 mm (1/16”-3/8”) of the sensors.
1. Remove the existing cranks.
2. Loosen the cable guide screw. It may be helpful to shift the front derailleur to the small chainring position, and
the rear derailleur to the smallest cog. This will reduce the cable tension, and make it easier to slide the cable
guide mount under the cable guide.
3. Slide the mount under the cable guide. The guide can be installed with the magnet pointed down (as
illustrated) or up.
4. Reinstall the cranks.
5. Tighten the cable guide screw.
6. Confirm the magnet is within 2-8 mm (1/16”-3/8”) of the sensor.

The included adhesive putty will permanently attach the magnet to your frame. Other non-permanent
attachment options include: hot glue, some epoxies, electrical tape, or similar adhesives.
NOTICE
Do not allow the magnet to contact the power meter. When properly installed, the magnet should be in line with
the cadence sensors and within 2-8 mm (1/16”-3/8”) of the sensors. Depending on your frame, you may need to
stack magnets to achieve this distance.
1.
Remove the existing cranks.
2.
Use the included sandpaper to gently scuff the frame where the magnet will be mounted. The center of
the magnet should be positioned between 27.5 mm and 30 mm (1” - 1 1/8”) from the center of the bottom
bracket.
3.
Clean the frame with the included alcohol pad prior to attaching the magnet.
4.
Knead both colors of adhesive putty with your fingers until you have one consistent color.
5.
Place a 6 mm (1/4”) diameter ball of putty on the back of the magnet, and then press the magnet onto the
frame.
6.
Use a toothpick to carefully remove any excess putty before it dries. The putty will set up in about 10
minutes, and will cure in 1 hour.
7.
Reinstall the cranks.
8.
Confirm the magnet is within 2-8 mm (1/16”-3/8”) of the sensor.

PAIRING
Before pairing your power meter to a computer, make sure you are at least 10 meters (30 feet) from any other
ANT+™ device. This will keep you from accidentally pairing to another person’s ANT+ device.
To pair the power meter with an ANT+ computer, first spin the crank backwards 2-3 times to wake the power
meter and begin broadcasting ANT+ messages. The power meter will shut off after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Follow the pairing instructions specific to your ANT+ computer.

ZEROING
The power meter must be zeroed to compensate for environmental changes. The power meter can be zeroed
two ways: Auto Zero and Manual Zero.
When to perform the Zero procedure
For best results, you should perform the Manual Zero procedure before each ride. The Auto Zero procedure
can be performed instead of a Manual Zero or if your computer cannot send a “Calibrate” command; if the
temperature changes greatly during your ride; or if you are getting inaccurate data.
Manual Zero
The Manual Zero procedure should be performed before every ride with the rider off the bike and with the
drive-side crank arm at 6 o’clock.
The power meter may be zeroed manually by sending the “Calibrate” command from an ANT+™ compatible bike
computer. The power meter will return the Zero Offset value (or “Current Calibration” on some computers) to the
computer; however, not all ANT+ computers will display the value. The Zero Offset is typically between +/- 1000.
Some units will always have a Zero Offset value outside of this range without any impact on performance. What
is more important is that the pre- and post-ride Zero Offset values are within 50 points of each other. If the
pre- and post-ride Zero Offset values frequently vary by more than 50, or if day-to-day values vary widely,
please call Quarq customer service.
When performing the Manual Zero procedure, put the drive side crank arm in the 6 o’clock position, keeping the
cranks stationary with no force on the pedals. Follow the pairing instructions specific to your ANT+ computer to
send the “Calibrate” command. The LED will flash one time when zeroing is complete.

ZEROING CONTINUED
Auto Zero
Spin the crank backwards for 4-5 complete revolutions. The LED will flash one time when zeroing
is complete. The computer will not display the Zero Offset value. The Auto Zero procedure may be
performed while coasting with the rider on the bike, stopped using one or both feet, or by hand with the
rider off of the bike.
Zero Offset Stabilization
With a new power meter or newly installed chainrings, the zero offset takes 2-3 rides to stabilize. During
this time you should perform the Manual Zero procedure regularly to ensure accurate power readings.
Short, hard efforts in both chainrings on your first ride will speed up stabilization.
14
ZEROING CONTINUED
CHAINRINGS
C H A I N R I N G I N F O R M AT I O N
On power meters with OmniCal™ you can swap chainrings without impacting accuracy. They do not
need recalibration when you change chainrings or chainring sizes. Power meters with OmniCal™ only
require re-calibration when moving from two chainrings to a single chainring, like moving to a Force
CX 1 X-Sync chainring.
XX1 power meters do not have OmniCal™. They are factory calibrated for 32T and 34T X-Sync
chainrings. XX1 power meters require recalibration if you install a 36T or 38T X-Sync chainring.
Re-calibration can be done using Qalvin, Quarq's diagonstics App.
The zero offset will change whenever chainrings are removed and/or reinstalled. The zero offset
will take 2-3 rides to stabilize.
Recalibration is never required if you are replacing worn chainring(s) with new chainrings of the
same make and mode.
CHAINRINGS
15
C H A I N R I N G I N S TA L L AT I O N
When installing chainrings you must align the chainring tabs and derailment pin so they are in line with the
crank arm.
Tighten the SRAM steel chainring bolts to 10 N·m (88.5 in-lb). Tighten other chainring bolts according to
the manufacturer’s instruction.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
B AT T E RY I N F O R M AT I O N
• The power meter is powered by a CR2032 coin cell battery.
• Do not use any tools to remove the battery cap.
Using a tool to remove the cap from the base of the battery compartment can
damage or break the entire compartment.
• Use your hand to unthread the lid counter-clockwise. The battery should be
installed with the “+” facing out. Reinstall and hand tighten the battery cover
after the battery is replaced.
• The power meter automatically switches on when the crankarms are rotated,
and shuts off after about 10 minutes of inactivity. Under normal operating
conditions the battery will last for about 300 hours of riding.
• The power meter will send a warning when the battery is low. However, not all
ANT+™ computers will display the message.
• The power meter retains its sensor ID throughout battery changes and will remain properly paired with your
computer.
B AT T E RY C A R E
• The battery must be installed correctly (“+” out) and have sufficient charge.
• Periodically check the battery compartment to make sure the battery contact is free of corrosion and
moisture.
CAUTION : FIRE HAZARD
Use only the recommended battery in your power meter. Use of any battery other than the recommended
may cause the battery to explode and catch on fire. Dispose of used batteries according to local
regulations.
CLEANING
The power meter is very durable; however, periodic cleaning is recommended. Use a rag to wipe debris from the
power meter, crankarms, magnet, and chainrings. Brush the power meter, crankarms, magnet, and chainrings
with clean or soapy water, then rinse with clean water and let air dry. Do not use harsh chemicals and do not use
a high-pressure washer.
