If you are a member at a club that uses Stages Studio, use the Stages Studio+ app to record a free ride when paired to the Stages Power meter on your indoor bike. If your club offers on-demand or remote live classes, you can record them using the Stages Studio+ app. Workout details will upload to your Stages Cloud account, and you will receive a post-workout email. 


If you take a Stages Studio class at your club, your workout details are recorded through the Stages Studio system. You don't need to use the Stages Studio+ app to record classes.

Pair the Stages Power meter and optional HR sensor

Note: If your bike has a SIC1 or SIC2 console, do not turn it on until after the power meter is paired to the Stages Studio+ app. Even though the console shows up as a device in the Stages Studio+ app, and you can pair to it, this will prevent you from properly pairing with the power meter and receiving data.
