This is a great review by velo.outsideonline.com providing a balanced review of the Favero Assioma Duo Shi power meter which we stock.

The reliability of these power meter pedals is excellent, and the ease of swapping between bikes makes them an great choice for those with more than a single road bike.

For years, those who wanted power meter pedals had few options other than using Look Keo cleat compatible pedals. Italian manufacturer Favero debuted the Assioma Duo Shi (dual-sided Shimano) power meter some four years after the debut of its Look-compatible version, in 2017.

Unlike the Look compatible version of the power meter, which arrives as complete pedals with power meter spindles and pedal bodies, the Shimano version is sold as power-measuring spindles-only, so you’ll have to bring your own pedal bodies, or make an additional purchase.

• Long-lasting: Forget constantly reapplying lube. Squirt stays put through dusty gravel grinds and muddy trails, lasting way longer than any other lube I've tried.
  
  
• Effortless application: No more greasy fingers and frantic wiping. Apply Squirt to a clean, dry chain, let it dry overnight, and you're good to go. It's that simple.
  
  
• More time for important things: Like coordinating my socks and gloves, obviously. But seriously, the easy application saves time and hassle.
