Stages Power with SRAM Carbon Cranks

I am relatively new to cycling and am in need of some advice.

 

I am interested in getting a Stages Power Meter. I have however been told that there would be a compatibility issue with my current cranks, which are SRAM carbon crank arms. Is there a relatively cheap way around this? 

 

Perhaps changing the cranks - can this be done and what is the cost?

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

The groupset is SRAM Red with Force derailleurs and Shimano front blades.

 

Thanks!

I have Sram red and fitted a Sram Rival left crank arm without any issues.  The left crank arm will be slightly heavier than the original but who really cares.

Hi, how is the stages power meter working out for you? and on your red groupo?

GXP or BB30? In fact, has anyone paired up a stages power meter + arm with an existing sram red BB30 setup?

 

It's a bit of annoyance that stages finally offers BB30 compatibility, but only if you are using their carbon cranks and their BB spindle. The cost is the annoyance as I would prefer just switching out an arm as opposed to the whole setup.

Carbon stages crank arms available soon.

 

Quarc available now. Sell your current crank and get a quarc

 

and hope nothing goes wrong with the Quarq else you'll be sending to the USA for a warrantee.
