Great!
Did you happen to weigh this combo?
The converted pedals are 417g.

Looking for a Shimano flat pedal body that will fit the Shimano spindles. The EH500 are flats one side and & SPD on the other. The add’l width of the Shi spindles would help keep their foot off the pod vs the original version and an Xpedo flat pedal body.
13mm Cycling Tips (see quote below)
From GPLlama: Pedal Q-Factor: 65mm
From DCRainmaker: Favero Assioma DUO-Shi Power Meter In-Depth Review (Shimano SPD-SL variant) | DC Rainmaker
Garmin Vector 3/Rally Series: 53mm (55mm with their stock spacer)
PowerTap P1/P2: 54mm
Favero Assioma: 54mm (55mm with their stock spacer)
Favero Assioma Shimano: 65mm
Shimano Ultegra (non-power): 53mm
SRM X Power: 54mm
" Combining the external power pod and Shimano’s own pedal bodies forced Favero to make one large concession – and the width of each pedal has grown considerably by 13 mm. The result is a pedal with a Q-factor of 64-65 mm (64 mm for 105 or lower, 65 mm for Ultegra), a far different figure from the 53 mm of Garmin’s Rally RS pedals."

What is the difference between a Shimano R540 and Shimano M540. The Favero Assimo is compatible with the R540. Surely there can’t be that much of a difference apart from the cages.
https://si.shimano.com/#/ is your resource for exploded views. There’s a post from 10/15 in this thread which lists what the p/n are for the Favero “Shimano” pedals. There may be more.
Duo-Shi spindles with PD-EH500 pedals for winter. They’ll be equipped with PD-A520s for gravel season. Data aligned nicely against a Power2Max…

Hi! Will the issi flash II work?
I don’t think so. The III work because they use bearings vs bushing/bearing combo. You can see the difference here: https://rideissi.com/parts/spindles

I have a Wahoo Kickr and 2x 4iiii left side crank PM’s. All are a bit off from each other and it bugs me! I known I can scale the 4iiii but I’m not sure which to believe is the most accurate. I expect the Kickr to be low with drivetrain losses, but the 4iiii are slightly off different amounts from the Kickr as best I can tell.
You’ve found the Duo Shi to line up well with a P2M, so do you think if I got a set I could “trust” them and scale the 4iiii from the Favero? The added benefit would be I’d love a bit wider Q factor on my road bike.
IDK about “trusting” X to scale Y. One of the converted sets was spot on, I ran out of fall season to check the other one on add’l rides. The initial ride was off a few %. I never use the initial ride as “the” test, need multiple after things are settled in. I have a third pedal body set up that I’ll also test but again, that will be spring before any of that will happen.
If you want 100% alignment and you use your kickr for indoor data, than perhaps you scale your two 4iiii to align with that.

That’s I appreciate the input! Problem with basing everything off the kickr is that reads lower, so it would drop my ftp a few watts 
For anyone thinking about using the older (non DUO-Shi) Favero Assioma PM axles with one of the Shimano pedals listed in this thread by retrofitting the DUO-Shi Adapter Replacement Sets to them, the detachable/removable seal ring on the older axles is a larger diameter & of a different design than the one on the new Duo-Shi axles. And it seems that the seal is actually machined into the DUO-Shi axle. At least according to an article I read yesterday. Very nice detailed pic in the same article seems to confirm that.
Possible solution? Use a pair or more of washers the diameter of the older axle but smaller in diameter than the selected o-ring to properly maintain the o-ring in place in the DUO-Shi Adapter Replacement Set bodies. Hopefully. Any other ideas?
Anyone know if this would work with Look X-Tracks? Thanks.

Hi if you’ve got a minute would it possible to measure from the centre of your cleats to the edge of your shoe? I’ve got a similar kind of shoe but as I spent quite a bit of money on them I’m loath to start cutting them. Thanks
45mm will leave similar clearance between shoe and pod and what you need between pod and crank arm. 48-49mm is rough actual. Working with 45 as the max should be safe and be cognizant of foot rotation when clipping out. .

I have the Garmin Rally pedals with both Keo (road) and SPD (MTB) pedal bodies. NICE solution. Expensive, but works great. I don’t imagine 3D-printed cleats would be strong enough - but maybe.
That’s great news as the centre of my cleats are actually at 43mm from the widest part of the upper of the shoe and 35mm from the sole so looks like I’ll not have to carve anything off! Thanks for taking the time to measure that. Cheers

The added width to the spindle makes it a lot easier to use wider shoes : )

Just another quick question, do you need the special tool to take the spindle out of the 520?
