I know there was a post on the Facebook group about the IQ2 power meter. I was willing to take a punt at the price they were offering it at. Somehow I missed some updates. Check out the update posted on the Sep 10, 2018 • 2:46PM that has some real power numbers using the DC Rainmaker tool. […

I am not sure how I feel about switching pedals. I am fairly invested in SPD-SLs and like others, though this was an ideal way to use existing pedal platform across a few bikes. On the other hand, I wasn’t sure that having a reduced axle size threaded into the crankarm was as solid an interface. Any…

I’m so glad I didn’t go for an IQ2 as pedal based power meters are of no interest to me. I’m glad I went for a 3rd gen stages.

Was there a mention of expected shipment date (yes I realize that’s a sensitive subject haha)

One of my uses for it are a track bike so short of sending my track cranks to Stages or uber-expensive SRM track cranks, I’m OK with a pedal based solution to be able to use between 2 or 3 bikes. I would have to spend a lot more to be able to do anything for my 3 bikes.

August now. So with a grain of salt that means September-October by the time they get through delays and to the high backer numbers. With any luck however, they can tap into some expertise at Look and avoid more delays. I am guessing that Look is a willing partner to get more units out there and ta…

That’s actually faster than I expected. Given your background in product development, do you think they had these pedals already planned and now had to speed the plans up or was the original plan so flexible in terms of technology and materials to switch to pedals?

Sounds like it could be a cool product when it comes to market!

There’s quite a bit going on, but it is not impossible. It looks like all of the big parts are there and this is more a packaging and validation exercise, but the devil is in the details. Pedal based is a fairly well know solution and I would assume that they carefully examined one before so can avo…

From a supply chain perspective it is interesting. My guess is that they were approached by look that was interested in their technology and that they have had some conceptual talks. After the testing errors those plans might have gone in overdrive where Looks resources and established supply chai…
