These Pro-MX-2 pedals are excellent. Simple to install, easy to set up using the Favero app, and they pair instantly and automatically with my Garmin cycling computer. Calibration is a snap, and they provide a wealth of data, including cadence, average and maximum power output, left/right power distribution, where on the pedal platform you are putting pressure, and where in the pedal stroke arc you are generating power -- very helpful if you strive for a more balanced and efficient pedal stroke.
They were a bit difficult to clip into at first. The retention tension screws were set quite high at the factory. But a quick tension adjustment solved that issue, and they have worked flawlessly since.
Battery life so far has been excellent. I am still on the initial charge after a half-dozen gravel rides. Charging is quick and exceedingly easy thanks to Favero's magnetic clip charging system. No need to remove the pedals or crawl around under the bike to attach a charging cord.
These are quality pedals that cost significantly less than comparable power pedals from other manufacturers. I have had zero issues with them, apart from needing to adjust the retention setting. Highly recommended for riders looking for excellent, data-rich power-meter pedals for their gravel or mountain bikes at a good price.

I have 2 Wahoo Powerlink pedal sets and have endured a few 'update' issues.
This is my first experience with the Favero model. Great connectivity, very fast to connect and calibrate, if necessary. With only 2 months of experience, my first impressions are nothing but positive. A great experience so far.

These pedals are a good deal. Battery life has been really good. I had the Garmin pedals one side though and they seemed more bulky and a bit heavier than these pedals that are dual sided.

I've had the Favero dual sided power meter peddles for about two months and haven't found anything not to like. First, they paired seamlessly with the Hammerhead K3. Second, thus far they are reliable. Third, they are very much like my Shimano MTB peddles and I really can't tell much difference in terms of performance, ease of use, etc.

These are the best out there. I've not compared accuracy vs other meters, but plenty of reviews out there have, and they certainly seem accurate to me based off my experiences.
Durability is top notch - I've ridden these in torrential rain and brutal sand that have killed other equipment (rip, trusty Fenix headlight :'( ), and these haven't even flinched. Battery is superb, charging is extremely easy, app integration and UI is excellent and seamless. Pairing with my Edge 1040 is straightforward (though I do occasionally have to manually select these in my 'paired devices' menu), and they've never dropped out on me mid-ride. Clip-in and -out is perfect (on par with XT pedals, for sure), and engagement and hold are rock-solid.
Weight penalty is minimal, and the ability to swap between bikes in 30 seconds is so, so nice.
I'd wholeheartedly recommend these to anyone looking for pedal-based power for gravel or mtb, or even road if you don't mind the slightly higher stack height and weight vs typical road setups. Bonus blurb for BikeTiresDirect- shipping was exceptionally quick, and the price was lower than anywhere else I've ever seen. Kudos BTD, this is why I keep coming back.

The value on this product is great. They are accurate, easy to set up and provide a great option to other power meters in being able to be moved to different bikes easily and their price tag. The only quirk I noticed is they do not engage with my shoes as quickly and easily as my Shimano pedals. I wear Sidi Dominator off road shoes and it takes an extra second or two to get them lined up to engage. This is not a problem for a training/casual ride but could be an issue in a race. Where Shimano pedals just seem to naturally find the right spot with no real effort the Favero require a little finagling to get them positioned. I am in my 50s now, so my competive racing days are behind me but this would have bugged me in my 20-30s. I still ride 8-12 hours a week and still structure my workouts and these work wonderfully.

First of all - these are good pedals. There is nothing different about them vs any other standard SPD based pedal other than the small charging pins located on the inside of the spindle. The power readings are great - no dropping or issues. Paired instantly with my Garmin products. Battery life is crazy - still on my initial charge since purchase including multiple road trips (the vehicle motion sometimes turn the pedals on and ~ 250 miles of riding).

Bikesdirect was fast and easy to use. Pedals were on the bike, setup, and calibrated ready to ride within 20 minutes. Data seems perfectly accurate. My outdoor testing is within 2-3W of my bests on the indoor trainer across multiple efforts from 2-12 minutes, and heart rate tracks perfectly with my indoor data and power numbers. No issues with sounds as I saw in other reviews. I charged them fully before installing them the first time and they are still holding medium battery after roughly 40hrs of riding time. I would definitely buy these and use bikesdirect again in the future.
Review by Sean
Easy to set up and link to cycling apps and provides so much information. Simple to swap out to different bikes as well - just update crank arm length, recalibrate and ride. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
Review by Stu
I've been using the Favero Assioma pedals on all my bikes, and they're fantastic. The installation is incredibly easy'just like installing any regular pedal. Once they're on, you're good to go, with no complicated setup process. The battery life is outstanding; I can ride for weeks without needing to recharge them, which is perfect for long rides or frequent training sessions. Most importantly, the power measurement is super accurate for both legs, providing reliable data that has really helped me fine-tune my performance. Overall, they're durable, efficient, and well worth the investment for anyone serious about power-based training.
Review by Geoscience
I really wanted to like these pedals for the fact they were reasonably priced and weighed less than a competitors dual - sided power meter pedal. By the 3rd day of use (just general riding on gravel roads, nothing extreme or dirty) the pedals started to drop communication to my Garmin. By the 4th day they completely stopped communicating and appeared to be "dead" despite them being nearly fully charged. Sent an email to Favero and heard nothing 24 hours later. Being a bit concerned about this and having a race coming up, I reached out to Bike Tires Direct, and they quickly helped me get the situation sorted out with some Garmins (which have worked flawlessly).
Well, 10 days later Favero replied (better late than never). And wanted me to do things such as send video of the issue and let them charge for 20 hours. Do some deeper research online before considering these as an option.

Really working well -- definitely recommend.

No power meter is cheap, but this is the cheapest SPD based meter I've found. I've not used it as long as my garmin pedals, but it seems just as accurate. Rechargeable batteries are nice. Standard SPD interface works well for MTB/Gravel
Review by Bob
These pedals are outstanding. They work well right out of the box, minimal setup. The app is excellent, lots of info. And the price is right.
Review by N8
I love these pedals. I love that I can swap them between bikes and even run a road pedal body on them if I want to.
Review by John S.
These pedals are my first foray into the power meter game. They were easy to setup and pair with my phone. The pedals are solid and stay connected to my Garmin 1040, *after* I manually connect them each time. No amount of troubleshooting works to have them automatically recognized. Minor but annoying nonetheless and why they don't get a full 5 stars. They are on the expensive side so again, only 4 of 5 for that.
Review by GH
Have been using these on both my road and gravel bikes. Work well and appear to be very accurate when approximating numbers with my trainer. The battery life is as advertised. No issues at all, easy to set up with their app.

Great battery life. Accurate. So nice to just swap pedals to bring power with me
Review by Lesser Golden
Pedals clip in great. Easy to install. Easy to sync with a Wahoo computer. Quick to charge. Power metrics seem very accurate relative to other power meters I have used. Love that I can easily swap them between bikes. You do have to know your crank arm length to enter it when setting them up.
