Here's where the best deals on power meters actually are this Prime Day 2023
In the USA, Amazon's power meter deals are actually surprisingly strong. In the UK, there are other retailers to use
Generally, the best power meter deals are to be found on cycling specific websites - but at least in the US, that trend has well and truly been bucked, with all the lowest prices there to be found on Amazon during its Prime Day sales (which come to an end by midnight October 11).
In the UK, the deals and discounts are rather less surprising, with Wiggle and Sigma Sports turning up trumps for Favero's Assioma double and single sided pedals, as well as Garmin's XC100 single-sided pedals for two bolt cleats.
You can find our full guide to all the best power meters we've tested over here, and our handpicked round up of all the best Amazon Prime Day deals can be found over here.
Bear in mind that to access the Amazon deals you'll need an Amazon Prime account. The good news is that you can take out a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime, put your order through and cancel the membership straight after.

Favero Assioma DUO: was $1,190.00, now $759.00 at Amazon
Amazon isn't usually the best place for power meter deals, but that seems to have changed for this Prime Day. Although this listing isn't showing the RRP of Favero's Assioma DUO power meter pedals, $759.00 is really a very good offer - the next closest retailer is Competitive Cyclist at $769.00
The Assioma DUO pedals read power on both sides, giving you full pedal dynamics and power balance data. They're also rechargeable, which is great for anyone who doesn't want to faff about with replaceable batteries. Just to note, these pedals only take a Look Keo style cleat.
Price check: Wiggle $1,026.49 | Competitive Cyclist $769.00
Favero Assioma UNO: was $799.00, now $495.00 at Amazon
Again, another power meter deal which is best on Amazon. This model is very similar to the DUO in its rechargeable battery and cleat fitment - the difference here is that it only reads power on one side. Great for giving you power readings you can train with, but you don't get the same full data picture as with the DUO. Still, you can buy the UNO first and purchase a second upgrade pedal later on to get your complete data picture.
Price check: Wiggle $672.49
SRAM Apex Dub Left Crank: was $220.00, now $208.34 at Amazon
The offer here only applies to the 172.5mm crank length - so if that's what you already ride you are in luck! Either way, SRAM's single sided power crank for its Apex groupsets is one of the cheapest ways to get power readings on your bike - even at full price
Price check: Backcountry $220.00
UK
Favero Assioma DUO: was £720.00, now £579.99 at Wiggle
This is currently the best deal we could find - and 19% off with a £140 saving is really pretty good for a dual sided power meter and getting your full pedalling dynamics along with your left/right balance. We really appreciated its rechargeable battery when we had it on review - very quick and easy to make sure you're fully topped up
Price check: Sigma sports £609.99 | Amazon £646.99
Favero Assioma UNO: was £475.00, now £379.99 at Wiggle
Very similar to the DUO, but with only one power sensing pedal rather than two. This still provides a power reading which is accurate enough to train with or connect to Zwift, but it doesn't give you your full data picture. Many people are happy with the level of data that a single-sided power meter provides, but there's also the option to buy a single upgrade pedal down the line if you find you want that data.
Price check: Sigma Sports £438.99 | Amazon £538.16
Garmin Rally XC100: was £570.00, now £464.00 at Sigma Sports
Garmin's Rally pedals are particularly versatile in that you can swap between different pedal bodies to work with different cleats - if you like, you can convert these SPD pedals to work with road cleats.
But this particular Rally model is especially notable as it's one of the very few power meters which are compatible with two-bolt cleats - and it's even better value at this discount.
Price check: Tweeks Cycles £539.99 | Amazon £734.80
So there you have it. In the Amazon really isn't doing so well for the power meter deals right now. On the other hand, smart watches, head units and a whole wealth of other kit have been bestowed some pretty hefty discounts.
