The main differences between the Powermeter Spider Red AXS D1 and the SRAM Red AXS XPLR E1 Powermeter Spider lie in their intended application, chainring mounting system, and compatibility.
- The Powermeter Spider Red AXS D1 is designed for road use with an 8-bolt 107 BCD chainring mount system, compatible with SRAM RED AXS 8-bolt DUB and GXP cranksets. It supports 1x and 2x chainring setups and uses integrated chainrings for lighter weight and improved shifting.
- The SRAM Red AXS XPLR E1 Powermeter Spider is designed specifically for gravel riding, featuring a proprietary Thread-Mount chainring system that reduces weight and increases stiffness while allowing easy chainring swaps. It is compatible only with 1x setups and uses a 28.99 mm axle diameter.
Both power meters measure power at the spider with dual-sided measurement, have an accuracy of +/-1.5%, use a CR2032 battery with about 200 hours of life, and support Bluetooth and ANT+ connectivity with temperature compensation and IPX7 waterproof rating.
In summary, the Red AXS D1 spider is more road-oriented with 8-bolt chainring compatibility and supports 1x and 2x setups, while the Red AXS XPLR E1 spider is gravel-specific with a Thread-Mount system optimized for 1x chainrings.
