Review: Wahoo sensor - I've been using the Wahoo RPM Speed and Cadence Sensors for a while now, and they’ve been awesome. They’re super easy to set up — no magnets or complicated installs. The cadence sensor sticks right on your crank or shoe, and the speed sensor goes on the hub of your wheel. Took me about 5 minutes to get them both going. They pair instantly with my phone and bike computer using Bluetooth or ANT+. I use them with Strava and the Wahoo app, and the data is very accurate. Cadence readings are smooth, and speed is more reliable than GPS, especially indoors. Battery life is great — I’ve been using them for months and haven’t had to change the battery yet. Plus, they’re waterproof and still work perfectly after a few rainy rides. If you want simple, no-fuss sensors that just work, I totally recommend these. They’ve made tracking my rides way more fun and consistent.
Review: If you're a serious cyclist who's using an app to track your rides, you NEED these! - I've been using Runmeter on my iPhone to track my rides. However, while using GPS for pace is fine for running, it's not so good for tracking speed, as GPS has a natural delay and doesn't update as frequently as needed to give a truly accurate speed reading. Having a dedicated sensor solves that problem. What attracted me to this was how there is no magnet. For those who aren't aware, traditional speed sensors require placing a small magnet onto a spoke, and then mounting a sensor to the frame. You had to get them just right, too, particularly with keeping a small a gap as possible between the magnet and the sensor. Plus, I was never fully confident the speed was very accurate since the calibration is done using your wheel diameter and the magnet/sensor might anywhere within that radius. These sensors use a gyroscope to sense actual motion. The speed sensor goes onto the hub of a wheel with a rubber band, which is quite beefy and holds tight. It's that simple! The cadence sensor was just as easy -- use the included zip ties to secure it to the inside of the left crank arm, and done! I have no worries that either will fall off. Pairing them with my iPhone 6 Plus was perfectly easy, too. I had to wait for one to go to sleep before I could pair the second one, but that wasn't so bad and I had no problems at all. I've read other reviews where people said they wouldn't pair or stay connected, but I wonder how much of those were due to personal savviness and rather than the product itself. For me, everything worked perfectly during setup. I've been on several 30+ mile trips since the sensors were installed and I haven't had a lick of trouble. Speaking of Bluetooth, I must say that I haven't really noticed any reduction in battery life on my iPhone after putting these into use. I'm sure it does take a little extra juice for my phone to use them, but the difference has been imperceivable (which is to be expected from any Bluetooth Low Energy device). They'll emit a quick blue blink once every couple of seconds so that you'll know whether they're on. But it's not excessive and you won't even see it while you're riding. The only time I've noticed it is when walking my bike in and out of my apartment. Note that you're not restricted to using the app provided by Wahoo to track your speed and cadence. Most of the well-known fitness apps include functionality for using external sensors, you just have to make the app aware that you have them, and they'll use them. There's only one complaint, and it's trivial. When I pulled these out of the box, they were already blinking at me. The means that at any point during shipment where there was motion, they were on, wasting the battery away. So, the cadence sensor is already at 50% on the first day. I don't know if they came from the factory without a battery insulator, of if perhaps mine was a returned set where the insulators had already been pulled out (but mine seemed brand-new). Whatever, it's okay -- they're replaceable and certainly has no bearing on the quality of the sensors themselves. The batteries are supposed to last a year or two, so it's fine. Wahoo seems to be the leading innovator in Bluetooth and ANT+ sensors intended to be used by third-party apps. These are working beautifully for me, and so were worth every penny!

## Features

- SPEED / CADENCE MEASUREMENT - Track and capture real-time cycling speed and cadence with compatible training apps, including Wahoo SYSTM & RGT, Zwift, and Peloton Digital iOS App via Bluetooth
- CYCLING CADENCE - The number of revolutions per minute (RPM) you complete at a given speed. By learning how to increase and train your cycling cadence, or the rate at which you pedal, you’ll improve your cycling efficiency and allow yourself to pedal for longer, faster.
- DUAL BAND TECHNOLOGY - Integrated with ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart capabilities, Wahoo’s RPM Speed & Cadence sensors connect to smartphones, tablets, and bike computers.
- SLEEK AND EASY TO INSTALL (NO MAGNETS) - Universal fit fits most bikes and frame sizes. Cadence sensor attaches to a bike’s crank arm or shoe; Speed sensor attaches to a bike's wheel hub. Mounts included
- VISIBLE CONNECTION – Two LED lights give instant feedback: the sensor's device connection (blue) and RPM detection (one red blink per crank turn).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The picture of the app shows power, is that really on the app when using speed and cadence sensor together?**
A: I'm not sure how it would work on a real bike, but I use this on my spinner bike with Zwift, and what happens is the two sensors work together to create an estimate of power based on speed and cadence. Though it works well enough to get a workout and ride around on Zwift with a fixed gear spin cycle, the estimate is flawed because the faster I pedal, the faster the wheel spins, and the higher my power. 

It might work differently on a road bike with gears, where for example on a hill, you can produce high cadence and slow speed and vice versa low cadence and high speed on a flat or downhill. In any case, while it will produce a watts reading, it will likely be far less accurate than using a smart trainer or power meter crank/pedals.

**Q: Can you use this to track distance?**
A: Yes, this sensor counts wheel revolutions, and if you have told the app how big the wheel is, it will measure distance traveled. The CycleBike+ (Amazon app ASIN: B01ANZYMDM) and CycleBike Smart (Amazon ASIN: B01N364PZR) Android apps use GPS to calibrate the wheel and combine the speed sensor and GPS data to measure distance. When you upload your ride to Strava, it makes its own distance calculation using the GPS waypoints. Find out more at www.cyclebikeapp.com

**Q: will this work with the tomtom spark 3?**
A: Check on the wahoo website for compatible apps listed

**Q: Is this sensor water resistant?**
A: The Wahoo RPM Speed and Cadence Sensors are rated to IPX7 specifications: waterproof up to 5 feet
