Pros & Cons

First PM but faultless so far.

I've been doing quite a bit of research concerning power meters and concluded that whilst it would be nice to have readings for both legs I'm no Chris Froome and I doubt it would make much difference. Plus, the power meters that do measure both legs are very expensive and need a pro mechanic to sort out. I like the fact that the home mechanic can fit this power meter and its a doddle to set up using my Garmin 1000. With the suggestions that it might not be completely waterproof I put some silicone grease (used for underwater camera housings) on the washer and on the outside of the battery cover. One note of warning - if you are going to fit it yourself you do need the Shimano Crank Installation Tool. It only costs a couple of Euros.

Pros & Cons

This is my second Stages power meter, the first is the Ultegra unit and they both perform faultlessly. Beautiful to look at, negligible weight increase but great power performance readings. No issues running both power units on one Garmin (1000).

Pros & Cons

I really rate the stages power meters, having had the ultegra one for several years. When the new bike came with Dura Ace didn't hesitate to upgrade to this model. Minimal setup and giving vital data straight out the box for a mere 20g weight penalty.

Pros & Cons

Fit's easily and is a simple to setup. It paired to my Garmin unit without any hiccups. It's too early to tell whether it will stand the test of time but I'm happy with it so far.

Pros & Cons

Brilliant

Great powermeter with consistent readings. It's easy to install meaning you can swap between bikes quickly. Competitively priced compared to some of the other brands on the market. I would give it 10/10 if it was better at resisting water ingress. Even the 2nd generation model still does let water into the battery compartment which flattens the battery over night. Top tip - Using Krystal grease on the battery compartment seal helps limit this and keep things dry!

Pros & Cons

Excellent product.

Dura Ace 9000 Stages power meter. Easy to fit and calibrate and very accurate. Couldn't be happier. A superb price and a fast efficient delivery.

Pros & Cons

Best value power meter and the newer mark 2 version seems more robust than previous. Only downside is the range of ANT+ signal when using on Zwift - ok if usb dongle is within 60 cm of the crank, then it'll work ok.
