Has anyone seen a review for the Zone power meter manufactured by Brim Brothers? Where? If yes and it wasn't on the web, would you please summarize the review.

It appears their working on additional funding via Indigogo at the moment.

Genetics load the gun, lifestyle pulls the trigger.

They recently announced both a further delay (to August) and an expanded pedal set (other speedplay pedals)

Thanks, that news is unfortunate...
Ah, good old Brim Brothers. I remember being psyched about the Zone years ago, like literally 5-6 years ago back when MetriGear was a thing and pedal based power was going to be all the rage.
I honestly don't understand how they have survived this long as a company without ever actually managing to have real release. Hell, even the DCR article that claimed they were finally in production is from 2014.
Even if they are in double-secret-production now and totally going to start shipping units without further delay (wink wink) I honestly just don't trust the first generation of a product that has apparently taken the better part of a decade to work the kinks out of. I'd be happy to change my mind once they have a real product out in the wild, but crowd-funding is a huge scam in general IMHO and I certainly would not be taking the risk in this situation.
