I want to buy a power meter crank to use with a campy 11speed drivetrain.

Choices are rotor, quarq, fsa, others?

Any recommendations? Experience with one preferred...

Have you seen the 4iiii power meter? No need for a new crank, glue to your existing crank.

Doesn't power2max make a Campy power meter for Movistar?

Powermac and a Dale crank - it's a great setup, if you got BB30 that crank is light and stiff and will just last forever.

Yes but it is still like $2000. All the other power2max are a lot less.....

I am waiting for it to be real, not vaporware

Pedal based power meter?

Crank based is less $ and I use the speedplay system for all bikes and shoes.

Fair enough. Any crank based system that is 10 or 11 speed will play well with campy 11 speed.

Appears that they have already started shipping.

After watching stages go through their teething issues and reading DCR's review of the 4iii, I wouldn't be an early adopter.

To the OP, a Quarq will serve you well and SRAM will stand behind it. I just ordered one for a similar application.

Totally agreed, not going to be an early adopter of that product.

The Hollowgram Quarqs that Chainlove/Backcountry has been selling are a pretty great deal...you didn't say if the frame is BB/PF30...

I love the look of the White Industries cranks.... not sure if they will work with a power meter though.

The Power2Max built on an FSA K-Force crankset would probably look pretty good with a Campy group since it's carbon. It's about $500 less than the Campy version.
