SRM offers with the PC8 a device completely focused on the needs of the athletes. Faithful to the principles that have made the company market leader, the new PowerControl8 integrates data from the most modern metrics such as Training Peaks: TSS® (Training Stress Score®), NP® (Normalized Power®) and IF® (Intensity Factor®). At the same time, the now classic values of power, cadence, heart rate, time, speed, distance and energy, which have always been the main references for cyclist training, are maintained.

On board the new PowerControl8 there are also the GPS (for recording the track) and a brightness sensor which is activated in poor light conditions to make the contrast and the quality of the reading always optimal. These sensors can be disabled to increase battery life (up to 30 hours).

The memory has a capacity of 500 MB and can hold up to 4,000 training hours. A motion sensor automatically activates the PC8 when you pedal.

Since many cyclists have several bikes with power meters, the PC8 supports up to four different bike profiles. By selecting the corresponding bike profile before setting off, you avoid pairing between PC8 and PowerMeter every time you change bikes.

The size of the display has increased and the displayed data are freely configurable. The upper cover is made of aluminum and is available both anodized and painted: both versions are available in many colours. In the case of anodized cover it is also possible to customize the sides with laser engravings. In the case of a painted cover we have standard colors but there is practically no restriction on the choice of colour: SRM can customize your PC8 with the requested RAL code.

Data transfer and device recharging are allowed thanks to a magnetic connector located on the back of the device. The data is saved in files compatible with the most common analysis software: Golden Cheetah, Strava, Training Peaks, Self Loops and Velobook.

Data from the power meter, speed sensor and heart rate monitor are received via the ANT+ protocol. The PC8 is compatible with every power meter that supports ANT+ technology.
