Best power meter for Cannondale Synapse

getnoticed

Curious to find out what power meters other Cannondale owners are using.

I use speed play pedals so not considering Garmin Vector pedals.

Should I go crank based (eg Stages, 4iiii etc) or wait for the Brim shoe based meters to come out?

I have Vector 2's on my Synapse - I know you said that's not on your radar, but that is what I am using :-)

Never seen that shoe based one. I like the idea of that! I currently use a power tap on my Cannondale. I went for that so it was interchangable between the BB30 and english threaded bikes.

Too many options to make a single answer worthwhile. What budget and what kind of usage do you want it for? (and don't say 'measuring power')

Because if his synapse has proprietary cannondale cranks (sisl) and you go for a Stages system, it wasn't until recently that they did a sisl crank compatable system. I assume?

This will bolt straight on to a si or sisl2 crankset , http://www.cyclepowermeters.com/quarq-c ... -570-p.asp

Failing that, any Quarq BB30 chainset - they all have wide axles that will accommodate bb30 or bb30A frames.

Last time I checked it wouldn't fit the SISL2

I have Cannondale HollowGram Si cranks - not the standard Shimano Ultegra ones, therefore understand that options are limited

Budget up to £600 ideally - not fixed

I'm not a racer, but feel I can improve all round.
I would like to work towards structured training and see power data as a tool to help me.
