Crank and pedal based power meters usually dont give accurate power readings when used with oval chainrings.
Quick googling suggests Team Sky still use Stages as a power meter, and Stages say on their website: "Through our own testing, and using a hub-based meter as a control, we conclude that there will be a 4-5% increase on the readings from a Stages Power meter when used with a non-round chain rings."
