New features
Support for 'Apple Find My' allows you to see the location of your powermeter with an Apple smartphone, iPad, Mac or Apple Watch. Simply add the power meter to the app. Furthermore, the new feature 'Automatic Terrain Selector' has been developed, which can detect different types of terrain. The powermeter then automatically switches between different methods to measure cadence, accurately measuring your delivered power on any terrain!
Exact measurement
The Precision 3+ powermeter gives a very precise measurement with a deviation of only 1%. Power is measured in the left crank arm and is doubled to measure the total power delivered. For most riders, the difference between the left and right leg is very small, making this powermeter an excellent choice for your bike. When you put power through your pedals or crank, it not only bends the crank, it twists and bends in all 3 dimensions. 4iiii's 3D power measurement system measures this multidimensional load, so you can be confident that your unique pedal stroke will still be accurately measured regardless of your riding conditions.
Connectivity
The 4iiii Precision 3+ power meter transmits a Bluetooth and ANT+ signal. This makes this power meter connectable to almost all modern bike computers such as Garmin, Wahoo, Polar, Mio, Lezyne and Bryton. Calibration is done via 4iiii Device Configuration. This app is available for Android and IOS. Through this app, you can also see the state of the CR2032 button cell battery.
Battery life
The 4iiii does not have an internal battery, but uses button cell batteries. The downside of this is that you do have to replace these from time to time. Fortunately, the battery (CR 2032 button cell) lasts more than 800 hours, which is a lot longer than most internal batteries in power meters. When the battery is below 15%, you get a notification in the 4iiii Device Configuration. So you're always on time with replacing your battery.

Note: The 4iiii Precision powermeter is slightly wider than a Shimano left crankarm due to the powermeter unit. This may cause problems with some bike frames. To determine if your frame is compatible, you can perform a test. To do this, you need to be able to move an 8 mm Allen key vertically between your crank arm and chainstay. The last product picture on this page has an image to clarify it. Optionally, 4iiii website also has a handy little document you can print out and stick on your crank. Then you will know exactly between which points the 8 mm Allen key should be able to move. When there is enough space for the 8 mm hex key, you can assume that the 4iiii powermeter is compatible with your frame!

1. Remove the pedal on the left side.
2. Loosen the two crank bolts at the top of the crank arm and remove the locking pin from the slot.
3. Next, remove the crank nut with this crank wrench.
4. Now the crank arm is basically loose and you can take it off the axle. You may well have to apply considerable force here. The most important thing is not to damage the crank arm.
5. Then fit the powermeter crankarm by following the steps above in reverse order.
6. Next, do not forget to mount your pedal to the new crank arm and you are ready to ride!
First of all, it is important that you have a Shimano road bike crankset. If you don't have one then unfortunately you cannot use this powermeter. That means that with a Cannondale bike, you unfortunately cannot use this powermeter. Other cranksets you cannot use are e.g. FSA, SRAM, Praxis and Hollowgram. You can also not use this powermeter on Shimano MTB cranksets due to a different design.
However, you can also combine this powermeter with cranksets of an older generation. This can also safely be an older generation than the current groupsets. As long as the mounting method of the crank arm: the two nuts that keep the crank arm in place are the same. You may then see an external difference. Here are some cranksets that should at least fit provided you have enough space on your frame.
105 R7000, Ultegra R8000 and Dura-Ace R9100.
Furthermore, it is important that you have enough space at the swingarm. If you do not have enough space here then this powermeter will not fit. Unfortunately, there is also no way to make the powermeter fit anyway. The best way is to check this with the model from 4iiii.
How can I determine what crank length I need?
Crank length refers to the length of the crank arm and is measured from the centre of the bottom bracket to the centre of the pedal axle. Bikes are basically delivered with the correct crank arm length for the corresponding body height. The length is indicated on the inside of your crank arm in most cases. If not, you can measure it yourself. It is important that the crank arm powermeter you buy is the same length as your current crank arms.
With which software and/or hardware is this power meter compatible?
This power meter transmits both an ANT+ and a Bluetooth signal. This makes this power meter compatible with most current bike computers. Only not all bike computers are suitable for use with a power meter. For this, you will have to consult the specifications of your bike computer. In any case, the common models from Garmin and Wahoo can almost all be connected. The Garmin Edge Explore cannot be paired with a power meter.
Should you not have a bike computer right now, you can also use the 4iiii app to keep track of your workout power data.
How do I calibrate this powermeter?
Calibrating your powermeter is very important for accurately measuring your power output. Make sure no weight is applied to the pedals, and that your right crank is up and your left crank is down (positioned vertically). Rotate the powermeter several times so that it is on. Then, via the 4iiii app, you can easily calibrate your powermeter. Another possibility is to calibrate your powermeter via your bike computer. Most bike computers have this option, check the manual of your bike computer how to do this exactly.

Good value for money
When it works, it's accurate and easy to use. Unfortunately I had a problem with this model but thanks to Mantel's after-sales service, I had a replacement very quickly!
5 / 5
Perfect price/performance ratio
Installation was quick and easy. Connection with my wahoo elemnt bolt also went very well. Connection with my iPhone and the "Where is?" function only after googling, but then quite easily

Good powermeter, good price, perfect for 99% of cycling tourists
A good power meter that measures everything you need to train efficiently. Only downside(s) is that the box says "join training plan inside" but it cannot be found in the box or on the website.

For the price absolutely recommended, price performance absolutely top
I now have several 4iiii s in use on various bikes, and they have got better and better from version to version. The load capacity of the current generation is easily enough for a season.
