These are the first photos showing their new pedal-based power meter that they previously announced back in the fall at Interbike. … Nonetheless, the photos show and imply the athletes are using the pedals on day to day training rides, as per the caption for the below image: “Marc de Maar analyzing the Keo Power data from the day’s training ride with Frederic” So that’s all good news; it means the product is at least to the point of being able to sustain the pounding of a normal training ride from a professional cyclists.

I think we’re also seeing here some of the impact of the drastic PowerTap price changes (reductions) from last month beginning to reverberate through the power meter industry. … Power2Max announced here at Interbike that they are lowing their prices further – almost 20%, following price reductions and new product announcements at Eurobike just three weeks ago.

However, interestingly, this past weekend the Garmin Vector power meter made its FCC debut. … Now, the reason the manual is interesting here is there’s been a lot of questions and speculation as to whether a special tool would be required to install the pedals – similar to what is required on the Polar Power Meter Pedals.

Garmin is proactively messaging this afternoon to various media outlets that there has been a delay to the Vector pedal-based power meter, which was previously planned to ship in March 2012 (next month). … We are 100% committed to bringing this highly anticipated power meter to cycling shops around the world and will be doing so this summer.” In a discussion with them, they noted that while they could have kept a moving timetable of dates (i.e.

Over the last few years, ROTOR has been slowly increasing both the quantity of power meters they make – as well as the types of power meters they make. … It first started with the original ROTOR Power LT some three years back, and then two years ago they introduced the left-only variant, INpower.

Since there’s been a huge response on my StageONE power meter post (read: a ton of questions and a whole lot of people viewing it), I went ahead and sat down with the guys last night and walked through every one of the 50+ comments on the post and got answers to all your questions.

I suspect if anything – you’ll see them follow in line with what Polar did over the past nine or so months with their pedal based power meter – which was to release very small batches to customers (regular and otherwise) and ensure quality and experience meet expectations. … This would fall in line with virtually every other new power meter I’ve posted about over the past 24 hours here at Eurobike.

In line with the power meter improvements they’ve added support for ANT+ left/right power meters, which will ultimately include the Garmin Vector pedal based power meter, the Brim Brothers Zone cleat based power meter, and the O-Synce pedal based power meter. … Here you can see the totals from my trainer workout, first up – on the device: Then on Training Peaks: (For those power geeks amongst us, you’ll notice my TSS/IF was fairly high – this was merely because I realized afterwards that my FTP on the Edge 800 was set at 200w, versus reality at closer to 300w.

A very solid 6,095 of you entered the giveaway to pick up a new power meter from Clever Training, specifically one of the Stages varietals (including a full crankset), which they just started stocking a few weeks ago. … Congrats Søren! You’ve just got yourself a brand new power meter!

But, it gave me a chance to try out their work in progress dual sided 4iiii power meter. … This is how it should be, since the highest power output would be closest to your legs, and then would be slightly lower as you get further from your legs (due to drivetrain/etc losses).
