POWERED BY STAGES
Giant and Stages Cycling are proud to announce the launch of two new GPS cycling computers. The Dash M200 and Dash L200 are available now through both companies' global distribution networks (Giant units through Giant channels and Stages units through Stages channels).
This collaboration builds upon the existing manufacturing partnership between the two brands. Giant has worked closely with stages throughout the development of the new Dash 200 computers.
Extract from Dash 200 press release below:
“Stages has worked with Giant Group as a manufacturing partner on our smart and commercial indoor bikes for several years, and we’re thrilled to expand the partnership to head units,” said Pat Warner, SVP of Product at Stages Cycling. “Giant was able to add valuable insight to the project with their product development and industry experience, and Stages brings training and software expertise. The combination delivers an excellent product to the end consumer.”
The Dash has already seen WorldTour success with race wins by riders on the Giant-sponsored Team Bike Exchange-Jayco squad.
“We’ve enjoyed a great working relationship with the team at Stages and have immense respect for what they have accomplished in the last 10 years,” said Jeff Schneider, Head of Product & Marketing for Gear at Giant. “Partnering with them to bring this new generation of Dash head units to market brought the strengths of both companies together. The cooperation has definitely delivered class-leading head units that provide clear and relevant riding data across Giant’s full range of bikes including our E-bike category.”
