2020 Specialized Tarmac Pro (Canada)
CAExcellent service Excellent on-phone advice regarding power meter and bike frame/ group set compatibility. Quick delivery to Canada. Awaiting installation on the bike so unable to comment as yet on use of the SRAM Force AXS Spider mount power meter.

GBHorrible Customer Service My Powertap hub, G3 cap stopped working. Tried to engage with customer service to warranty but since its been over a few years and i cannot produce a receipt although the serial number is quite evident on my photos that i sent i was turned down. Emails back and forth for 2 weeks to CS took days a time to get responses. When this was with Saris they would take care of their customers and i have used the hub based power for over 10 years, now Quarq and this is what i get, not even a discounted new hub cap unit. I have a new Tarmac that i was considering purchasing a spider version PM but i am seriously considering going with Dura Ace crank arm based PM rather than deal with this company.

GBQuick Service I dropped a chain it got bound between the the frame and the chainring. I had to force it out and after I did the power meter quit. I tried recalibrating and a couple of other suggest fixes but the readings were way off. Emailed the diagnostics to quarq and they told me that it would need to be sent in. From the time I sent it till the time it was back in my hands was 7 days. Amazing!

CAGreat Power Meter, customer service and ease of install! Having not been very satisfied with advice on Quarq power meters from a few Canadian bike shops, I called Quarq direct to determine which set to go with. The guy I spoke to was exceptionally helpful and checked into my bikes specification to match me to the right Quarq. He even gave me a “watch out” for the chainrings that I run when switching out. Placed an order direct with Quarq and received within a week! Only negative would be the packaging could be a bit more secure. When received, the cranks were not in their holders within the box and we’re loose so would have rattled around inside the box. All installed, working perfectly on the indoor trainer and now to wait for a warmer day to hit the road!

GBI bought a DZero PM just over 2 years… I bought a DZero PM just over 2 years ago. PM spider integrated into a SRAM Red crankset. Super reliable up until it just died as I was cycling along. Phoned Quarq customer service and went through a few tests. Very polite guy confirmed that it was dead. Appreciated that it was out of warranty but thought they might be able to repair it or offer to replace the spider element at cost- No, no help or support whatsoever for an expensive bit of kit that had seen light careful use. Basically throw it away, zip all product support offered. Very disappointed.
