For those who want to buy their SRAM S975 Quarq CinQo Saturn Powermeter with a power-reading bike computer and the necessary accessories in one big system so everything is on and will work all at once, we're offering a number of system options.

Gone, possibly forever, are the days when you were limited to a single bike computer to work with a single powermeter. This is thanks to the ANT+ wireless transmission protocol; so long as your meter can transmit the signal and your computer can receive it, you have great flexibility. You can now get the two separately, possibly to the chagrin of some computer makers, but a great benefit to you, the consumer. So start with the ANT+ equipped Quarq SRAM S975 powermeter and then choose the ANT+ computer that meets your style, your thirst for information, your aesthetic sense, and your budget.

The Quarq CinQo Saturn SRAM S975 crankset comes with a battery, a magnet mounted on a ring to be placed between the drive side bottom bracket cup and the bottom bracket shell, two loose magnets that can be applied with adhesive putty (also included) to bikes where the bottom bracket ring doesn't fit, and instruction manuals specific to the crank and Quarq. It does not come with a bottom bracket.

You have a choice between 170, 172.5, 175, and 177.5mm crankarms and between a 110mm bolt circle diameter (bcd) spider with SRAM Force 34/50 chainrings and a 130mm bcd spider with SRAM Red 39/53 chainrings.

We offer three CPU options that will sync perfectly with the Quarq CinQo Saturn SRAM S975 crank to make it a complete system.

  • The Garmin Edge 800 GPS is for those addicted to touchscreen technology. It has nearly all of the same functions as their Edge 705, but it comes with the convenience and ease of a waterproof, rugged 2.6" touchscreen. The Edge 800 is fully GPS enabled. The best part is that data goes two ways with the 800 -- you can upload maps and routes from your PC or Mac into the Edge 800, and you can download the routes that you've just ridden. And like the 705, the Edge 800 is ANT+ compatible. This means that the 800 can read information from powermeters, heart rate monitors, and speed/cadence sensors so that you can fine tune, monitor, and analyze each and every ride. With the 800, you can enable Virtual Partner, a rider you create, who exists only in the Garmin device and rides at your goal parameters. Besides ANT+ and GPS capability, it has a barometric altimeter, thermometer, and automatic time zone adjustment. The built-in base maps will get you started, and an included data card is preloaded with City Navigator so you'll have detailed maps for all of the U.S and Puerto Rico. You can add micro SD cards for extra storage or for finer map detail with streets and/or topos. It also includes a premium heart rate strap and a speed/cadence sensor. The 3.5 oz. Edge 800 has a 1/4 turn mount that installs without tools on the handlebars or stem. It has a rechargeable Li-ion battery that gives the unit 15 hours of life before you'll have to plug it in and charge it with the included cable. The USB download cable is also included along with a quick start manual.
  • The Garmin Edge 500 is a GPS-enabled bike computer that allows you to program up to eight metrics of data on a display with two separate screens. With two screens and eight metrics per screen, you'll have up to 16 lines of data at your fingertips. It has the same metrics as the Garmin Edge 705, just without the mapping and virtual partner features of that unit, which makes the 500 both smaller and lighter. The GPS comes in handy when you want to see where you've ridden afterwards. The Garmin 500 comes with a bike mount, speed/cadence sensor, heart rate monitor strap, instruction booklet, owner's manual on CD, charger, upload cable, and software on CD. You can use Garmin Connect on the web as well and you can upload ride data into TrainingPeaks, WKO+, and other power software.
  • The CycleOps Joule 2.0 is the first cycling CPU made strictly with powermeters in mind. Not only does it have a fully customizable dashboard that can show up to eight lines of data at one time, it also has a reports mode and an activities mode. Reports means you can recall data from past rides as well as historic data averages on basic things like your highest power for a given time as well as compare normalized power and surges. In activities, you can program scripted workouts. The Joule comes with a speed sensor, heart rate monitor strap, instruction booklet, upload cable, charger, and software CD. You can use the included software, TrainingPeaks, WKO+, and other power software.

Please Note:Quarq Powermeters are not compatible with the bottom bracket shell on the Wilier Cento Uno.
