Stages Gen 3 Power Meters – Wider Shimano Support
At Eurobike, Stages Cycling announced some new power meters. Well. Kinda. It was the same Gen 3 power meter innards but the housing and placement needed to change to accommodate the design of the latest cranksets from Shimano ie the 12-speed Dura-Ace 9200 and Ultegra 8100.
I’m guessing most people who go for the 12-speed Shimano setups will be doing so on new bikes but…you never know.
