SRAM Red 2x Power Meter Kit E1 Direct Mount Info

The SRAM Red 2x Power Meter Kit E1 Direct Mount builds the power meter directly into the chainring itself rather than bolting a separate spider between the crank arm and the rings. It's an 8-bolt direct mount kit designed for SRAM's Red AXS E1 cranksets, and the one-piece chainring design keeps the whole assembly stiffer than a bolted spider-and-ring setup while measuring power independently from each leg and reporting a true left/right balance rather than a single combined number. SRAM rates the system at +/-1.5% accuracy, with active temperature compensation built in so readings hold steady as the ride heats up through a long climb or cools off on a fast descent.

Calibration runs in the background through SRAM's MagicZero system, continuously rechecking itself as you ride instead of requiring a manual zero before every session. Data broadcasts over both ANT+ and Bluetooth simultaneously, so it can pair with a head unit and a phone app at the same time without switching modes. Power comes from a user-replaceable CR2032 battery rated for roughly 200 hours, which means swapping a coin cell instead of tracking down a charging cable mid-season. The chainrings themselves use SRAM's X-Range gearing, holding a consistent 13-tooth delta between the big and small ring across every available size — 46/33, 48/35, 50/37, 52/39, 54/41, and 56/43 — which keeps cadence steadier through front shifts than a wider tooth gap would allow.

Because this is the power meter version of SRAM's standard direct mount chainring rather than a separate spider that bolts between crank arm and ring, installation is a straightforward swap onto an existing Red AXS E1 crankset instead of a full crank replacement. RA Cycles carries the kit across all six chainring sizes. For riders already running Red AXS who want accurate, temperature-stable power data without touching their crank arms or bottom bracket, the Direct Mount kit is the simpler path to power than replacing the whole crankset.

The RA Perspective

We like recommending this kit to riders who already have a Red AXS E1 crankset and just want power data without touching the crank arms or bottom bracket. Since the power meter is built into the chainring itself, install is close to a normal chainring swap rather than a full crankset replacement, which keeps both the cost and the wrench time down compared to buying a whole new power meter crank.

Accuracy has held up well against other power meters we've set up side by side — the +/-1.5% spec is honest, and the temperature compensation means we don't see numbers drift on long descents the way some older meters used to. MagicZero calibration running in the background is genuinely convenient; you stop thinking about zeroing it and just ride.

The one real consideration is the CR2032 battery. Two hundred hours sounds like plenty, but if you're training heavily and forget to check it, a dead battery mid-ride means losing your data for that session — keep a spare coin cell in your seat bag rather than finding out on race day.

We'd recommend this to a rider who's committed to Red AXS E1 and wants reliable dual-sided power data added on, rather than someone shopping for a power meter across multiple bikes or crank brands — for that, a pedal-based system gives you more flexibility to swap between bikes.
