  1. Hello GPLama, hello everyone,

    Does anyone know if Giant only uses this new 2020 power meter for the 2020 bikes ?
    I’m thinking about buying a TCR, like the TCR Advanced Pro Team Disc, it has the “Giant Power Pro power meter” but in the “Technologies” part there’s no mention about it.

    On the other hand, the TCR Advanced Pro 1 Disc also has this power meter “Giant Power Pro power meter”, and in the “Technologies” part “Power Pro” is listed.
    https://www.giant-bicycles.com/us/tcr-advanced-pro-1-disc-2020
    On the Giant website, “Power Pro” is described as “The all-new Power Pro system from Giant”.

    So it made me wonder if some 2020 bikes were still using the 2019 version of the power meter (the bikes without the “Power Pro” tech.), that didn’t seem that accurate, or if every bike uses the 2020 version.

    Thank you.

  2. Hello GPLama, are you still using Giants PowerPro Power Meter? I have a 2020 version and the ridelink app prompts me for a New firmware version (3.1.1) but when I try ti install It I r eceiver a “Firmware not found Error,”
