![]() You’ve likely seen the Dash name already over at Stages with that company’s Dash L10 and M10. The L200 and M200 are available in both Giant and Stages branding. The new L200 and M200 are virtually identical: size is the only difference. The L200 has a 2.7” screen (40 mm x 55 mm) and weighs roughly 105 g. The M200 has a 2.2” screen (35 mm x 45 mm) and weighs about 77 g. ![]() For comparison, the Garmin Edge 530 screen is 2.6” (40 mm x 53 mm). The Wahoo Elemnt Roam is 2.7″ (35 mm x 57 mm). Main features of the Giant Dash L200 and the Giant Dash M200 It’s practically the same size as the L200. The two computers have bight, colourful displays. They show your ride metrics (speed, cadence, power, distance), as well as training data, such as TrainingPeak’s training stress score, intensity factor and normalized power. You can upload workouts and routes to the head units to help you navigate. Battery life is said to be 10 hours if you’re running maps and one sensor. The life grows to 18 hours on reduced power mode. I ran a power meter, heart rate monitor and didn’t use any of the power-saving features on a two-hour ride. The batteries used about 20 per cent of their juice. Giant says the L200 charges in less than three and a half hours, and the M200 in less than two and a half hours. I found their charging speed to be a bit slow. Definitely ensure these units are topped up well before you head out on your ride. Just like the couch at grandma’s, the plastic covers are still on these computers. (The plastic came off for the next ride.) Getting started with the Giant Dash L200 and the Giant Dash M200 You can streamline the process a bit by getting the Stages Cycling app first, and punching in your details there. Entering in your Wifi password is a pain with the Dash’s navigation.
