Cervelo P2 power meter compatability

I have a 2015 P2, and I am looking at either the Stages or 4iiii power meter. I am 2mm short of recommended clearance on the non drive side.

Is it as easy as a 2mm spacer in the crank arm? I'm pretty adaptable to change, but I just am not sure if it's this easy to make it work.

Thanks!

Which crankset? I have 2015 P2. I previously had the FSA crankset that came with it and used a stages PM on it with no issues.

I have an Ultegra 6800, 165mm crank.

Yeah, it's a little tight. I just want to make sure that it's as easy as putting the 2.5mm spacer available on the non drive side. Fingers crossed.

Did you ever try this out? Curious as I am in the same boat.

Thanks,

I did - actually only used a 1 mm spacer - could try another but it's working well! I'm super pleased with the 4iiii PM so far.

Knee is coming around too - so it's looking like it could be a productive fall!

We had the same dilemma regarding clearance. Went with Power Tap P2 pedals, which you can swap out on all your bikes. You can use Keo cleats, if you don’t want to purchase Power Tap cleats. The pedals sync with Garmin and we have had no issues. AAA lithium batteries usually require a swap about every 6-8 weeks.
Just throwing out that idea.

I really love my speedplays, which was why I was trying to find another fix. Although that got really interesting this week too!

The 4iiii seems outstanding so far though.
