Stages SC2 Plus Announced

Coming in at a sweet $2399, Stages Cycling has just announced their new Indoor Bike.

This should appeal to the committed indoor cyclist or a more casual cyclist just wanting a proper piece of kit. The elite and wannabee racer types will always have their eyes on the more expensive model.

Stages SC2 Plus vs. StagesBike SB20

It comes in significantly lighter than the top-of-the-range SB20 and has a fixed 170mm crank which should be usable for most people. Perhaps the biggest differences are that a)  it’s not as smart as the SB20 and requires manual resistance changes and b) there’s a quality Stages Gen3 left-side crank power meter to detect and transmit what you are doing to Zwift and other apps.
