Pedals showed up today. Mine came with black springs. Right out of the box they are in the middle of the tension range. I think are the perfect tension.
So I rode today still on virtual in TR, but was watching my true power from the pedals on my head unit. Wow vitual power was way off the higher I got. At 240 virtual, I was at 320 from my Assioma’s. I’m going to do a ramp test tomorrow. Excited to see what my true FTP is.
Post your results!
Ended up with an FTP of 249. Virtual was 200 so that made for a long test and I bailed at 26 mins in. When I was riding yesterdays workout, 120% intervals so virtual was 240, my actual power was 320. The higher the wattage, the farther the virtual from real power got.
Any tips on where to buy assioma duos in Europe for the lowest price possible? I’ve seen in US web store about 200€ less than what is commonly priced in European stores but customs is a problem so that may not be a good deal buying them outside the EU.
£575 - just bought a pair and quick service from DE.
What’s DE?
DE = Deutschland = Germany
The link is from UK so I wasn’t thinking on DE to be the normal DE 
Yes confusing sometimes , my guess is they ship from Germany
I can’t find the DE website. How’s it done? Do I place the order on the UK website and inside it there’s a way of choosing delivery from Germany?
Yes place the order on the website and they will ship to your address from their head office in Germany .
Delivery cost to the uk is 5.95
I’m from Portugal so the delivery rate must be different. I’ll Chek this on the weekend on my laptop. I’m on the phone righ now. Thanks!
It’s the same 
for orders from 250£
I just realized 575 pounds are almost 700 euros. It’s not a bad price but not a great deal. From the US in the cristhmas sales they were below 500€. How is this possible if it’s an European product?
I bought mine from Mantel: Favero Assioma DUO Power Meter Pedals - Mantel
£579, but free delivery
That’s almost the same value all around European websites. Crazy about how it’s much cheaper in the states wen its an European (Italian I think) brand.
It does seem a bit odd. Was that inclusive of sales tax? Don’t forget the postage and import taxes you’d have been sprung with buying it from the US into Portugal.
I bought a hat for my sister at Christmas – then got a nice bill from FedEx a fortnight later.
That’s the problem. Buying cheaper in the states but having custom taxes later it doesn’t get any cheaper in the end.
My question is why do assioma are so much cheaper in the USA than in Europe where they are built.
You need a portuguese friend who lives in the US who can bring you stuff, I’d offer but I’m not sure when I’m going yet!
I’ve though on that. Have a friend that if he came this summer I’ll have to ask him.
