So taking into account the group title ... I am thinking about booking my first 220 for 2017. I am thinking Copenhagen or Frankfurt ?

And I'm thinking about investing in a power meter. What kind of money are we looking at ?

Depends, DB.

Stages or those dodgy Powertap pedals are around £600 at the mo I think. Most other options are nearer double that unless you pick up some old wheels with a G3 hub.

Stages seem solid enough these days

I also have a rotor on the mtb which is flawless

My Stages has behaved itself all Summer. It *ate* batteries in the winter. Doesn't like the damp.

Really? That's getting into Vector territory then.

I've got a 105 Stages on my hack and an old G3 wheelset on my race bike. *must* swap them at some point as I've got better wheels in the loft doing nothing.
