Review by mechfishyGarmin Bike Speed Sensor 2 and Cadence Sensor 2 Bundleby mechfishyCycling EnthusiastVancouver, WA.Bound easily to a Lezyne Super Pro GPS unit. In fact it works better than the Lezyne sensor's. Except that the GPS doesn't detect the battery charge. But it was spotty with the Lezyne sensors anyway. Even when new. I've only used the Garmin sensors a couple of times. But so far I'm very satisfied that they even work with the Lezyne GPS. The Lezyne sensors are really cheaply made and suck the battery down really fast. Even when not being used. The quality of the Garmin sensors is far superior. And the price isn't much more than the Lezyne sensors. So far I'm very satisfied with the Garmin sensors. I may have to buy another set.

Review by DocHGreat for data nerdsby DocHCycling EnthusiastModesto, CA3 of 3 customers found this review helpful.These guys are easy to install (much better than the previous generation) and work well. Connecting to my Edge 530 was easy and I don't notice any dropouts. The rubber bands seem sturdy and battery life is extremely good. The cadence sensor is essential if you're a data nerd. The speed sensor may not be so important, because the Edge also tracks speed. However, some online reviews suggest speed is measured more accurately by the sensor. You also need a speed sensor if you use an indoor trainer, or if you ride in an area where GPS frequently drops out due to buildings, trees, etc. I have a couple of speed sensors (one for each wheelset) -- they're a pretty cheap add-on if purchased in the bundle with the cadence sensor.

Review by AhPa2 sensors in one package - Excellentby AhPaCycling EnthusiastWashington, DCI was using the magnetic version of the cadence sensor. Had to deal with the magnet placement as well as plastic straps to hold the sensor in place. The speed and cadence sensor bundle avoids the magnets and was very easy to install. Also, easy to link to my bike computer Apps.

Review by jdvadenThese worked as advertised immediately and they were very easy to install.by jdvadenCycling EnthusiastLas Vegas5 of 5 customers found this review helpful.The old cadence sensor required a magnet affixed to the crank and a transmitting unit located on the lower frame arm. Both required tight tolerances and easily could get out of alignment due to bumps or whatever. The new unit attaches to the left crank arm and can't get out of alignment. The speed sensor worked off the real wheel magnet and cadence/speed sensor. Again, the unit required tight tolerances and easily could be dislodged and require adjustment. The new speed sensor is great as it attaches to either hub and requires no further adjustment. Both units pair well with my Garmin Edge 500.

Review by seinbergSuper easy to put on and nice additional databy seinbergDaily CommuterNew York, NY5 of 5 customers found this review helpful.Great for tracking rides with a compatible device - I use a Garmin watch paired with these. It's good especially to get a sense for how cadence is and how it correlates with heart rate and things of that nature. Simple, reasonably-priced bit of cycling gear :)

Review by DocWassCadence is Reliable - Speed Sensor Not So Muchby DocWassCycling EnthusiastFL1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I've had this on my road bike (with Edge 1030) for 1 year and recently it started reporting speed in a "bouncing around" fashion: +/- 3-4 mph every second or so. Battery was changed and I used a voltmeter to ensure the replacement battery was good (previous battery still measured as good but replaced anyway). I switched between data recording "smart" and "every second" but the problem did not resolve. I turn it off when riding outside since the GPS is available but for inside riding this is bothersome. I also tried "auto" and "manual" for wheel size but the erratic reporting was still there regardless. The average speed at ride's end appears accurate so there's that. Just a nuisance.

Review by AxelectricWorks as it shouldby AxelectricAtlantaThese sensors have been the same for a number of years now. Adding them as I add bikes and they are easier to install than ever. One of two may had a dead battery so I changed it before attaching to the bike. Always have a couple of 2032 batteries on hand for your bike stuff.

Review by TomGood accurate product - Easy to useby TomDaily CommuterDenver, CO7 of 7 customers found this review helpful.I transitioned to an indoor trainer this January for Zwift. I have an old Garmin Edge 800 that is stuck in the dark ages with only ANT.
This sensor has both ANT and Bluetooth and makes connecting to Zwift a snap.
I moved the old ANT sensors to my commuting bike and just move the computer depending upon if I am indoors or outdoors.

Review by AnonymousWith BLE!by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastVentura, CA4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.These are working great on my stationary bike! The Cadence showed exactly what I was getting while using the Moov cadence ankle sensor (btw- Moov is more accurate for swimming than my Garmin 935!). The speed sensor is rigged on the front freewheel and I am satisfied with the speedmile readings even though it's not on a actual 700cx23 hub like it's designed to be.
