Aug 4, 2021 at 13:33 comment added Weiwen Ng We don't make shopping recommendations here. I can say this: the Power2max crankset is a modular system, actually made by Rotor (the arms are down-specced Aldhu arms, I think). The one you linked includes a 24mm spindle that's identical to Shimano's specs, so you just slide your old crank out and slide this one in, no BB change. And it uses a similar chainline to GRX. This one may be more fiddly to install than Shimano, but it should be doable by a consumer. Subjectively, I have heard that Quarq is well regarded for accuracy. P2max is at least in their ballpark; it's just more rare in the US.

So it sounds like I'd need to replace pretty much everything. :/ In this case, the other option I'm considering is power2max.com/en/product/… I like that I an retain the smaller chainrings, and I'm considering the smaller 46/30T option they offer, but I'm not sure that's a good idea with regards to replacing it when it wears out? 48/31T appears more common. That page lists the compatible BB's -- is there any specific one you'd recommend?
