CycleOps Power Introduces ANT+ Sport PowerTaps

For this year's Tour, each Team Garmin- Chipotle PowerTap- equipped Zipp wheel is displaying a limited edition gold hub cap. The gold hub on the team's wheels is not the only thing unique about their Zipp PowerTap wheels--they are also ANT+ Sport-compatible. Watch the video from CycleOps Power Product Manager Jesse Bartholomew to learn more.

Will the Garmin CAD 305 work as well, it is not color. How long before the wireless powertap 2.4 support Ant+? 2008 is very vague.

Hi Joe -

We are targeting Fall of 2008 for release of the ANT+Sport™ PowerTaps. The Plus series PowerTaps are compatible with any ANT+Sport™ devices. The device manufacturer's website should have information as to whether your device is ANT+Sport™ compatible. I took a look at the technical specifications for the Garmin 305 on Garmin's website, and it says that the 305 does not display power data from compatible 3rd party ANT+Sport™-enabled power meters (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=160&pID=331). If you are interested in a Garmin device, their website notes that the Edge 705 does display power data from compatible 3rd party ANT+Sport™-enabled power meters (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=160&pID=10885).

Thanks for your question.

Hi

I have two PT 2.4 wheels .. will these be "upgradeable" to be compatible with ANT+Sport devices? Or do they work already?

Thanks Russell

If you have a wireless PowerTap already, there will be an updater that you can use to update the software inside of your hub to make it compatible with ANT+ Sport. Additional information will be posted to our website and included in our CycleOps Power newsletter when it is available.

What is the current status regarding the ANT+ sport hub updater. Although there is a scheduled fall release of updated hubs, when will the actual updater be rolled out? Is there any additional information regarding price and whether the updater will work multiple times or only once for each hub?

The updater will be up on our website for purchase in the next few days. Keep an eye in the Accessories section under CycleOps Power for more details.
