the most common power meters are built-in to cranks.
Aside from the fact that most only read directly from half a crank,

As long as the power meter isn't only in a single crank _arm_, it
measure the total outout (check how the power goes to the rear
wheel...)

PROS do not produce this level of power for 10K - they can do it for 100K.

Please tell us which "PROS" can generate 400W for 100K. (BTW: are
you talking about km (kilo meters, metric) or something else when
you write "K"?) You might want to look at the power output for the
hour record -- obviously that kind of power can NOT be achieved for
two hours.

Tom is using K (1,000) instead of km (1) by mistake.

You and Frank have a lot in common. The last time you rode was down to the store and back. For another pack of cigarettes.

Actually "K", pr "kay" seemed to enter the USian vocabulary about the
time of the Vietnam war when unschooled U.S. Servicemen started using
the term to indicate both speed and distance.

"Hot Damn! The Cyclo broke and we had to walk 10 K", or "Hot Damn! we
were doing almost 10 K in that Cyclo".
