Can anyone comment on the Garmin Rally PM for cyclocross? I’m getting to the point where I would really like to have one power meter across all my bikes. I currently have four different PMs (first world problems, I know) and I’m tired of always having slightly different readings. I would love to …

to be honest the rally were build with that in mind. i seriously doubt they build a powermeter for people who just make loops in the local park. i do not have any insights on the QA of garmin but it is a reputable company and aside the accuracy issues of the rally. they are quite good PM.

I usually run standard SPD pedals for cyclocross and use my rally pedals for gravel/marathon-type MTB On a couple different races this past year I had issues clipping back into the rally pedals (with standard SH51 SPD cleats), after some relatively light mud (potholes in forest service roads in the…
