In the apple world at least for the app development I've done (n=1) you have to pay the annual license and update to the latest version of Xcode. Once that 1 year is up, the app no longer works. That was building it directly onto my phone which is different of course. |

But good point, a firmware update can go bad. My guess is there is no new update for mine anyway, it sounds like there are different versions of the stages PMs and mine would be old ones they stopped working on the software for. |

Just read about this today and I also hope the SB20’s will have replacement parts moving forward.

They should make the four folks who jumped to giant run a gauntlet of people in the bike biz who have been laid off during the past year
It would be quite a spectacle |

Interestingly, Power Meter City isn't discounting Stages product. They just have a pretty low key warning that you may be out of luck if you purchase.

Damn. I'm not a power meter user, but I was in the market for one of their indoor spin bikes, which my gym uses. Love them.

Imagine if they wrote a similar low key warning about the accuracy of the native Shimano PMs.

It is interesting looking through there that there are plenty of other options but Stages seemed to have stayed pretty affordable right up till now. For me personally I would really like to continue to use cranks that actually matched whatever group I picked that just have the PM added. Either OEM or something like what Stages or 4iii do, not stuff that is a completely new/different crank design that doesn't match anything else. |

The bike industry is a giant game of Jenga at the moment. Most of the big guys are turning the corner on their inventory situation but it's going to continue to play out for a while. From the inside, you're always waiting for spring and hoping that will fix all your problems. When it doesn't you're out of options. I imagine there's a couple more of these announcements that will come before mid summer.

The next closest option is to use OEM cranks with replaceable spiders, and use an aftermarket spider. Several SRAM cranksets have replaceable spiders, and there are multiple makers of SRAM compatible power meter spiders (both 3 bolt and 8 bolt). The same crank arms used in Campagnolo's power meter cranks are also used by SRM and Power2Max, so these will also closely match Campagnolo drivetrains. For Shimano, the only options I'm aware of are Stages and 4iiii, which will mount their power meter modules to OEM crank arms. A single sided crank arm system will be cheaper, but it may provide less accurate results if a rider's legs have different power outputs; a double sided crank arm will be more accurate (and can show how much power is contributed by each leg) but will be more expensive than a spider based power meter. |

I can't speak for anyone else, but I would have kept a gem like that.
