Stages powermeters

[mikecassie]

Morning chaps, I'm thinking of spending some cash on a Stages powermeter.
I've noticed the older Stages were blue, now some I see advertised are black, has there been some big improvements which the change of colour designates?
I've read bits about the seals being a bit rubbish and battery life being a bit short. Has these things improved any?
I'm interested in a Stages as they are available for Cannondale cranks which I have on my bike.
Any advice is gratefully appreciated
Cheers
Mike.

Dammit, you've given me another option I didn't know about.

Just doing some sums and with new chainrings I'm up to about £760 on the current exchange rate. Hmm, choices choices.

Thanks for the good advice from all, makes a nice change to see this rather than the usual trolling on other parts of the forum. :-)

Gone for the power2max option :-) Just have to wait a few weeks now for the toys to arrive.
