Hey guys, I'd like to find out if I can switch a Shimano Hollowtech Stages power meter between a road bike and a mountain bike. I assume the threads will be identical since both the 105 and the XT cranks are Hollowtech. I do realise that the Q-factor will be different on the two cranks.
I only want to buy one power meter to fit both bikes. If I get a 105 one will it fit my dual suspension MTB or will the left arm hit the chain stays? If I buy an XT power meter, I assume it should fit the 105 cranks with my left foot being slightly outwards due to the bigger Q-factor.
Has anyone ever done this? Does anyone use a MTB Stages on his road bike or vice-versa? Any advice will be more than welcome
