Reviews over the

Favero Assioma DUO

Got these after looking at a lot of reviews. As a power pedal, I think they have a greater chance of long term use, as the important parts are over near the crank. Unlike Garmin pedals where you have the battery housing on the outside of the pedal, one fall and the pedal is done in!! I had a small issue with the connection falling out on my Garmin Fenix3 and Edge 520, I emailed Favero and within 2 days they had sorted out an update for me, they asked me to update the pedals and there's been no problem since. their service is extermley good.

Pros & Cons

The reviews by reputable pundits convinced me that this was the power meter product for me. Mantel’s super competitive price convinced me that they should have my business. No fuss transaction and super efficient dispatch with tracking was very much appreciated. Product is faultless in all the three weeks of operation throughout torrential rain and muddy conditions. No complaints from me. Would recommend product and supplier! Pleased with my decision.

Pros & Cons

These dual sided power meters pedals appear to be very accurate and provide various cadence, power balance and smoothness metrics aswell as power. They use the look style cleats rather than shimano which is fine for me as I’ve come from a Garmin vector pedal power meters which also use look style cleats

Pros & Cons

I had a Stages single sided crank but got a winter bike that didn't have Hollowtech cranks. So I decided to take the plunge after seeing the top notch reviews of the Assioma duo pedals. I paid less than I did for a single sided Stages & I've been impressed so far. The app is easy to use, pedals very easy to setup & swap between bikes. Wish I'd pulled the trigger & bought these sooner. Cycling dynamics is really handy for finding weaknesses in your pedal stroke & means you can pinpoint the areas you need improvement. Highly recommend & Mantel are very low priced.

Pros & Cons

I am very impressed with the efficiency of my order.I had a message that it would arrive on Wednesday between 11.30-12.30,it arrived 12 noon.I will definitely do more business with them.Thank you.

Easy to install, easy to use and apparently highly accurate - certainly in line with my output on a simulator. Delighted

Ordered these, mantel delivered them very quick, very happy with everything

Pros & Cons

Very easy assembly and very accurate, happy with purchase

Pros & Cons

Delivery within 3 days during Covid19 lockdown - fantastic! Assioma DUO an excellent pedal based power meter. Easy to fit & move between bikes, accurate and reliable on the road or the turbo plus good value in my opinion.

Pros & Cons

Purchased these as I wanted to be able to move between different bikes. Easy to install and very simple to use. Excellent bit of kit which I would highly recommend!!

Pros & Cons

Only been using the duo power pedals for about 3 weeks and the only downside is having to use different cleats either 9 degrees of float or zero!

Pros & Cons

Had a few weeks with these now super impressed. Recommended!

Pros & Cons

I guess either these things work or they don't. Easy to set up, pair thanks to an app yoou download.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Absolutely delighted with these power meter pedals from favero... I purchased the assimoa duo version and they were super easy to install and the huge amount of data feedback is fabulous for me and my coach.. They are super lightweight and well made.. Added to that the fantastic price and service from Mantel simply cannot be faulted... Thank you Mantel. I am one very happy customer!!.

Pros & Cons

Very easy to set up and sync (in my case with my wahoo elemnt). Battery last for ages too. These dual sided pedals have confirmed my long suspected hunch that i have a left/right imbalance which I will need to address. The only thing is that the instructions are vague(ish) on whether a crank needs a spacer or not. I urged on the side of caution and used one spacer even though there was a slight gap between crank arm and battery wall.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Excellent power stats and simple to transfer between bikes. Quite literally just remove from one bike, attach to another and rest them via the simple to use app.

Pros & Cons

Easy to install and set up and very accurate,well impressed

Pros & Cons

Quality simple powermeter delivered promptly. Shoe cleats which come with them are not up to Shimano quality but that's a small thing & cheap enough to replace.

Pros & Cons

Does the job intended. No power drops, accurate, easy to change between bikes.

Pros & Cons

Pedals work seamlessly and provide huge amounts of information. Set up with Garmin computer and app in less than 5 minutes. No connection issues. Would highly recommend. Amazing service form Mantel. Now my favourite bike shop. Stocks products that other stores don’t.

Pros & Cons

Dead easy to set up, did what was needed. 2 mins to swap between bikes, very happy I didn't go for cranks. Only negative is the standard cleats have a lot of float, and they're not shimano, but I quickly got used to it!

Pros & Cons

Well priced power meter pedals, have been thoroughly reliable so far having covered a couple of hundred miles.

Pros & Cons

Brilliant look style Pedals which report dual sided power metrics. Easy to use, reliable and excellent battery life - 9 rides for a total of 250 miles and they’re still above 50%.

Pros & Cons

The Assioma is frequently ranked as the best power pedals in the market and I'm happy to confirm that they deliver to make any data geek smiling. Killer precision, lightweight, versatile, tons of data and useful tricks with the Favero app. In my experience the Q-factor increase was not an issue, can be felt but you quickly get used to it. The cleats provided have tons of float, but this is a cleat issue and not the pedals, a quick replacement for a 4.5º or 0º will sort it. The travel function in the app is really useful for turning the device off, particularly for a long indoor section if power comes from the trainer, it will save you some battery recharge cycles as it is not serviceable. This is the only down side I found so far, if the battery fails the whole sensor body needs to be replaced, thankfully you can keep the pedal base.

Pros & Cons

Pretty faultless so far. The clipping in and out not quite as easy as my other ld keo pedals but getting used to it now. Has helped identify left right power discrepancy and adapting training to improve this in measured way. Certainly helped me pave my climbs and may be reduce to my injury risk.

Pros & Cons

I need to purchase a power meter for dual recording races on zwift and felt if I was spending the money I would rather have something I could use for training outdoors as well . The duo is great as my right leg is slightly stronger so my dual recording matches the wahoo kicker power perfectly.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Love these. Really handy to swap from bike to bike and easy to calibrate.

An excellent plug and play product. I’ve been considering a power meter solution for ages. This is the best first foray into power meters, compatible across platforms (Garmin, Wahoo) and gives you by insights into power on the road - my only experience before this has been on a WattBike. Best price online via Mantel - thank you.

Pros & Cons

I am using powermeters for more than 10 years. I was trusting only one brand : SRM. Reliable but very expensive. I have also now a pair of Assioma. I have made already a lot of rides with them on a bike where the Srm is still installed. Difference between both is never greater than 1%. You can buy, eyes closed.... And with Mantel, you will receive them next day or two days later max.

Pros & Cons

Purchase was very easy and the delivery was very fast. The pedals work perfectly. Simple to setup and have worked flawlessly since I put them in my bike. I do find clipping in and out is not as easy as with my Shimano pedals. I haven't worked out why yet, but as far as a power meter goes, with all the metrics, they are perfect.

Pros & Cons

Had the Garmin Vector 3s and moved to the Assiomas and they have been fantastic. Works fantastic first time and great and easy change between bikes

Easy to install and swap between bikes. Straightforward calibration and an app that actually works. The best option for power based pedals.

Pros & Cons

Really pleased with speedy delivery and the quality of the pedals, recommend both mantel and the pedals.

Pros & Cons

Only used them about 10h so far... (only 1 charge). I had Look Keo Cleats already. Combining it Garmin edge 1000 provides most of Cycling Dynamics data except Platform Center Offset (PCO)... The available metrics already helped me improve my technique and have better indoor training sessions (I don't have a smart trainer). no disappointment... exactly what I expected

Pros & Cons

Seems very accurate. Easy to install and apply. Great app for iPhone.

Pros & Cons

Excellent pedal support and the power data is very precise

Pros & Cons

Great power meter and pedals. Position of foot relative to the pedal is nearly identical to the Shimano DA pedals I had on the bike. Incredibly easy to connect to the Garmin. Reconnect w/o problem every ride and calibration is a few seconds. Huge amount of info available (Duo) and seem accurate but don't have a second power meter for comparison.

Pros & Cons

Zeer eenvoudig te monteren. Na het monteren even kalibreren, koppelen aan je fietscomputer en trainen maar!

Pros & Cons

Made the purchase after years of hesitation. Installation of the pedals is easy (Instructions read, yes yes!). Pairing with the smartphone app is easy and well described in the guide and app. Paired with a bike computer, the pedals almost give an abundance of data! Wonderful!

Pros & Cons

A great power sensor, reliable and interesting data, I still need to familiarize myself with it to make concrete progress.

Pros & Cons

Easy installation, pairing with Garmin product / app without problems, two red Look Cleats included and significantly cheaper than the Garmin Powermeter! Battery life at about 50h and the long charging cables easily reach from the socket to the bike - the pedals can stay on the bike to load. Gladly again :)

Pros & Cons

The only thing: I had to activate the power meters via the app. No problem, I just did not read that and wondered that nothing is measured... :-)

Pros & Cons

After two outings, I'm very happy with the product, lots of data to analyze to improve your pedaling. Super-fast delivery (two days)

Pros & Cons

Function perfectly.

Pros & Cons

I'm a triathlon coach and use Assioma pedals. These are quality tools, so don't hesitate to buy a pedal sensor.

Pros & Cons

It's my first potentiometer and I can't say much, but so far I'm very happy with it.

Pros & Cons

Arrived the product in a noble packaging, including pedal plates, tools, charging cable, etc.. The pedals are easy to assemble, the handling of the app works just as well and they immediately connected with my watch, bike computer and Zwift !

Pros & Cons

Easy integration with garmin and easy installation on pedals. App installation for OK software update and smart calibration.

Pros & Cons

The Powermeter pedals from Favero are simply a price / performance banger! The workmanship is very good and the pedals are super easy to install. All in all, you are ready to use after a few minutes and can go. Also the coupling with my bike computer went effortlessly. The data is displayed very well.

Pros & Cons

I've been using these sensors for 6 rides now, and in the middle of preparing for a cyclo-cross I'm using them to base my training on power, and managing my rides is more efficient. And once again, well done Mantel, you've done it again.

Pros & Cons

Very good pedals, easy to install. For the moment used on a hometrainer, it's very precise. Will improve my ftp!

Pros & Cons

Product with exquisite finish and well presented (box, manuals...). You don't have to be an expert mechanic to get it perfectly ready in 5 minutes (attention to washers on connecting rods as the manual says).

Pros & Cons

Very good pedals, satisfied with the purchase. They were cheaper here than anywhere else and that leaves you a little skeptical at first, but all went well. There was only one hiccup with UPS which was delayed a couple of days due to a problem with the shipping address, although I understand that's not Mantel's fault.

3 weeks of use may not be much, but it already makes training more fun. What's more, I think it's great to be able to check your vo2max after each workout, thanks to the power sensor. All that's left is to use it to progress.

Pros & Cons

Very satisfied with this purchase, very good value for money and very easy to use. Great price and delivery time

Pros & Cons

Look-compatible pedals, easy to move from one bike to another. Accurate and reliable, connected to my Garmin computer which recognizes them easily, a plus for maintaining quality training and performance.

Pros & Cons

The Favero Duos are a real alternative to the, in my opinion overpriced, Watt pedals of the major manufacturers. I already use the second pair, because I thought after the first try it goes even better. Wrong thought. These watt meters are incredibly accurate and provide all the data you need to evaluate its performance in a structured way. Of course, you should be able to deal with it and interpret the data. But I know at the moment no plausible reason to have to decide for the competitors. A top product at a fair price.

Pros & Cons

Until now I had had crank potentiometers that had not given me too good a result, since they all ended up being damaged under warranty, with the consequent disruption, to which must be added that the last one was lost in the course of its shipment to the factory for repair. In addition, none of them were dual. I have 3 bikes, two road and one time trial, so also the fact that they are easily interchangeable is a big plus.

Pros & Cons

I am thrilled with the pedals. Could already use them several times and was extremely satisfied with the results. The assembly is exactly the same as with normal clipless pedals. The tool for this is also supplied.

Pros & Cons

Does exactly what it should. The advanced metrics unfortunately only work with the newer and more expensive garmin computers.

Pros & Cons

I drive them Assioma Duo for several years and am very satisfied. Reliable, great service and never problems!

Pros & Cons

For me, it was important to recognize the differences in strength between the right and left leg and to compensate for them by training accordingly. The pedals are immediately recognized on all my devices (Tacx, Bryton 420). Installation and setup are very easy. A big advantage is the problem-free usability on multiple bikes.

Pros & Cons

Apart from the product, which is super-quick to install and intuitive to use, the Mantel box made me laugh. Bravo for your sense of humor.

I was skeptical at first that the Watt pedals work. The set of pedals costs almost as much as from other manufacturers a set where only on one pedal is measured. With me, the pedals are installed on the old spinning bike, you can configure the lever length. And I record the workouts via Polar. I am very satisfied and hope they do not break down so quickly.

Pros & Cons

After a few rides there is nothing to complain about. Pedals are recognized by the Garmin immediately.no failures.

Pros & Cons

In use for a year now and very satisfied with it. Chose duo version because I have a difference in leg length and wanted to know if that translates into power difference L-R. (Yes it does but no more than 2%-point). Pedals are easy to (de)assemble with Allen wrench. Within 5 minutes they are on another bike. Already rode with Look pedals, so that worked out well. Calibration only needed when mounting pedals on other bike and is very easy. Put pedals vertical and bike upright; click on app and wait a moment; done! App works fine and updating firmware is smooth. Built-in batteries of pedals last at least more than 100 hours of cycling. What helps is that pedals turn off automatically after adjustable number of minutes of standing still, default is 5 minutes. Length of crank arm is adjustable via the app. Pairing with bike computer (Wahoo Elemnt Roam) is simple, as is pairing with apps on phone. Charging pedals is via 2 long mini-USB cables with special magnetic clips attached. Pedals are just as durable as Look pedals.

Pros & Cons

Provides In comparison to the competition very accurate readings, has a very long battery life and is very handy to use! Bottom line, a top product at a top price on Mantel.com!

Pros & Cons

Installation, loading and use very simple. Worked smoothly and fully from the first second. High utility value.

Pros & Cons

Installed in 10 min and cycled off. It could hardly be better.

Pros & Cons

Bit hesitant to make the jump from Shimano to Look but very happy with the purchase. Very simple installation, very easy to switch between bikes. No negative points!

Pros & Cons

Bought these initially because a crank product would not fit with my Trek frame. Then I went for the DUO version and did not regret it one bit. I have now ridden over 6000km both on the road and on Zwift with these pedals and like them very much. So I took the trouble to write a review. With the latest software update these pedals also do auto-calibration which makes using them even easier and more reliable. Only when converting to another bike is manual calibration still required. Works perfectly together with my Garmin Edge, but also as a power and cadence meter on Zwift a reliable measurement of power for your virtual rides, and thus much more comparable with performance on the road. Switching to Look does take some getting used to, and also seems to wear a bit harder, but ultimately not a problem. Recommended if you are looking for a dual powermeter.

Pros & Cons

Very good product, efficient, reliable. The plus is the supplied mounting key. Double charger with cable length for easy recharging! I clearly recommend the pedals, which are at least 30% to 40% cheaper than most competitors! BRAVO

Pros & Cons

I had not expected that everything works so easily and well. Only the app on the smartphone, pedals through charger aktiveren and register to app, screw on and calibrate once briefly. After 20 minutes I could make the first ride. Nanu, no values despite connection to the bike computer. Simple solution: it takes a few pedal turns after the initial setup then it really goes. The first about 1000km hab it no difficulties. Except for me. I pedal a little unclean, but that's why I bought these meters after all.

Pros & Cons

Quickly delivered and competitively priced. Pedals were easy to install and connection to Element Bolt was smooth.

Pros & Cons

I am thrilled. Unpack, load, briefly unlock via app, rann to the wheel and pair with the Garmin. It could not be easier.

Pros & Cons

Great offer on pedals that are rarely on sale. Fast shipping, easy installation. Nothing to complain about.

Pros & Cons

After only 4 years of use, the Vector2 pedals have said goodbye to me. The manufacturer has discontinued support for it and after the experience I no longer wanted to buy a product from the same manufacturer (despite 20% discount on new purchase). In my research on the net I have always come across the Favero Assioma DUO (or UNO). At mantel I discovered the lowest price and ordered immediately. The delivery took place within 2 working days, so I could start right away. Unpack, grease the thread and attach. About the app updated the firmware, coupled with a bike computer (Garmin Edge 1030) and it can go. The whole procedure took no 5 minutes (!) - alone the update of the firmware was with the competitor product rather nerve-racking, because it only went through a computer and failed again and again ... The readings fit (comparison with an installed SRM system on another wheel) and the specified Akkulaufeit also seems to be true. After 15 hours of use, the bar display via the app is at about 75% so that the specified 50 hours seem plausible. Positive in the assembly is still that the pedals are tightened with an 8 Allen. So it is easy to use a torque wrench with appropriate insert. Even that was the competitor only awkwardly possible via a 15 mm open-end wrench - even if a corresponding "goat foot" was included. I haven't really noticed anything negative so far. On a high level, I can only think of the status LEDs; why do they flash orange during operation? For me, red or orange always stands for "error" - I would personally prefer a Bluetooth-standard blue or green flashing. I don't find the partially criticized round knobs, which contain the electronics and the battery, annoying and there are worse things visually. But everyone has to decide for themselves. Finally, a word about charging the batteries; the magnetic connections work flawlessly and hold securely. The cables are more than long enough and a power supply with all possible adapters as well as a charger with 2 USB ports is supplied.

Pros & Cons

Just need to find good tools to loosen the old pedals and then screw these on and ready to use. Connects easily with my Garmin 1030 and shows immediate results as soon as the first data becomes available. Charging is also well organized with two cables on a plug that you easily connect. So far fine product.

Pros & Cons

Despite the price (which, by the way, is the lowest at Mantel), I enjoy it a lot. Mounting and installation is easy and the integration with the Garmin Edge (the 1030 in my case) is perfect. One thing: the included red cleaning plates are Look-compatible and not from Look itself (but from Xpedo). By the way, the red ones give much more clearance than the yellow SPDs. So you have to get used to this or buy the gray Look plates.

Pros & Cons

I have had this product for a few months now. Easy to install and pair with my Garmin watch and navigation. The only thing I have some trouble with is the oak (what do they call it?). For some reason this doesn't work for me, maybe read the manual sometime. Been cycling with SPD for years, this does click in easier, but no doubt this will be habituation. It is nice to see that you are pedaling with good power despite not going fast because of the wind against you. It is confronting when you see what good cyclists pedal and what you pedal in terms of power. The delivery by Mantel was clean and fast. Price is at plus and minus point. The price is high (but well worth it). However, you pay almost double for Garmin.

Pros & Cons

Very satisfied with this product, always does it and only charged twice in 3 months (cycling an average of 7.5 hours a week). Had to "get used" to the look Keo pedals at first but that's more between the ears than really different than Shimano.

Pros & Cons

Used a few times during training and also at a triathlon race. Very satisfied with the product and the data that can be viewed afterwards. Connection to a Garmin Edge is fast and accurate. Recommended for people who want to get just a little more out of their training.

Pros & Cons

These pedals are as heavy as my old Ultegra SPD-SL pedals and also measure power. They basically just do it all the time, and the battery lasts a very long time and also recharges quickly. I find engaging a little easier, unclipping just a little trickier (pedal has to be in 6 o'clock position more than Shimano) but if you let me try it blind I don't think I could tell what a regular SPD-SL pedal is or the Assioma As a minor downside, there's a sharp tip on the side that does get annoying against my leg at times (I think it's easily sanded away, by the way)

Pros & Cons

does exactly what it promises

Pros & Cons

Unpacked and installed in just 10 minutes.

Pros & Cons

To be able to train more focused outdoors as well, I purchased these pedals with power function. Great to not let headwinds drive you crazy and just pedal your intended wattage. Also power difference between left and right is indicated and other function (which I haven't investigated further yet). It all works great. Quick display, easy to pair. The only thing I have yet to get used to is that the pedals are less "ready to click in" than my old Ultegra pedals. Those always hung nice and still due to a weighted back of the pedal, which is a little less good with these Assiomas, but certainly not terrible. I do like the Look cleats (previously had shimano spd-sl yellow/6 degrees) only the backlash is different again. So again figure out if you prefer to go to red (9degrees) or gray (4.5degrees).

Pros & Cons

The product is very easy to install, through the app on the cell phone you can see for yourself when the batteries are low. the powermeter itself starts working as soon as you move the pedals and shuts off automatically when you stand still for several minutes.

Pros & Cons
