Where did you see that? When I look at their website it says 22 June.
The price fluctuates wildly on amazon. It can go from $739 to $840 in a day. I would just add them to your cart then let Amazon pick the best price for you. It will come down by about $100.

Great news. Thanks for the heads up. Iāll order as soon as they give me the option to - theyāre just offering to email me when theyāre back in stock at the moment.
Ive literally just had them delivered!!
Sigma didnt even unpack the box from Favero, they just chucked that in another box and sent that on to meā¦!

Iām jealous! Enjoy the new toy.
I was lucky to snag the Unos from Sigma earlier this week before they cleared stock. Gave them a whirl last night to compare my Bkool Smart 2 vs Uno. Seemed a bit bumpy to start with and was wondering if anyone has seen similar results. See below.
I was initially in a higher gear which seemed to give a falsely high power on the Bkool. I dropped a few gears prior to starting the first interval and the variance reduced but still seemed to be around 5-10w.
Fairly certain I have setup the pedals correctly including crank length etc. Wondering if it could be my trainer thats a bit off rather than the pedals.
Has anyone had similar issues?
Crank length is important but I would personally trust the pedal power over any trainer on the market.

Power measured at the pedals should be higher than the power measured at the wheel due to drivetrain losses. The difference will be higher when you cross chain, especially on the small chain ring. The difference should be minimal in the big chainring with the chain as aligned front to back as possible. If you calibrate pedals and trainer after peaking for 10 minutes, then the numbers should be fairly close.

Mine gave me wildly high readings while doing a leisurely ride around the neighborhood during my initial self-calibration ride. The manual says they donāt start sending a signal until they self-calibrate but mine showed around 1000w which is way more than I can generate on my best day sprinting. But once they settled in they were fine.

That makes sense. I was initially geared on the big chain ring and higher gear. When i dropped a few gears to make a straight chain it increased the pedal power closer to the trainer. Based on logic above (which is correct) that doesnāt make sense, its like the power profiles are mixed up. Something seems off as the Bkool trainers are factory calibrated so nout i can do there.
Iāll continue to run them in tandem to try and make sense of the data and move to the pedals exclusively once i can make sense of it.
I bought assioma uno last year and verry pleased with them. I was under the impression that theyāre only compatible with look cleats, is this true? I think that only the newer version (2020) is also compatible with shimano. I would like to use shimano cleats instead of Look but not sure that the version I have actually allows for that. Can someone confirm?
Look only (or Exustar cleats - but these are pretty much the same).
Where have you heard about new assiomas?
Newer version has a different spring tension, but that is about it.
There is a hack you can do to make them compatible with Shimano MTB pedals. But not road. Obviously the hack would void your warranty, so you would be on your own.
That newer version is like 2 years old now, the silver springs went away long ago. No you cannot use Shimano cleats with it. LOOK or XPEDO or that style only, looks like Wellgo makes a clear of the same variety too
I think Wellgo own Xpedo?
I wouldnāt mind SPD-SL Assiomas but Iām pretty sure they donāt exist (yet). Grey Look grip cleats are fine though.
edit: black springs a year agoā¦
Youāre not going to see an SPD SL power pedal for a long while because Shimano will not release the rights to anyone else
Heard it from a cycling buddy, but guess heās wrong then!
I donāt know if they own them but I use Wellgo cleats I get off of eBay since they are less expensive and identical to the Xpedo cleats except the for the Wellgo logo molded into the cleat.
