THM Clavicula SE power meter crankset

As you’d expect from a brand that names its components after bones, THM’S full-carbon crankset has not a speck of meat on it. The SE – which stands for sine exceptione, ‘without exception’ – only serves to reinforce that point. Not for the first time in its 25-year history, the German manufacturer says it has made the lightest power meter on the market, with the compact model weighing a claimed 320g. That’s more than 200g lighter than its predecessor.
Built with Danish power meter specialist Sensitivus Gauge, the Clavicula’s carbon axle accommodates strain gauges, a small electronic module and a lightweight rechargeable battery, which provides 150 hours of running time. Despite all that, the crankset is only 27g heavier than its power meter-free sibling.
Paired with the Team Zwatt app, the sensor measures from the left side only and provides power, cadence, pedal smoothness and torque effectiveness data.
