If any of you have a Stages PM, today I opened the app to check battery level before a road trip and there was a firmware update available for it. A bit surprising since their financial issues and sale to Giant, and age of the PM itself, I certainly wasn’t expecting any more updates. No idea what is addressed by this update.
I got that too, and thought the same thing.
Here’s what I found. Funny an update after 5 years of nothing 
Date: 04/28/26
Firmware Release #: v1.8.5
Replaces Release #: v1.8.2
Improvements:
-
Improved device wake-up reliability.
-
Added ANT+ connectivity configuration options.
Bug fixes:
- Fixed minor display formatting issue
Checked my road crank last night and no update, it’s at least 6 years old so maybe it’s a slow roll out.
I think that release note is for a Gen3 if that makes a difference.
It must be staggered as I have it now, not that it sounds like it’s a biggie!
Anybody see an update on the sb20?
My app got stuck at loading DFU or something like that. I exited the app and fortunately nothing was bricked.
