CYCPLUS Cycling Speed and Cadence Sensor Bluetooth & ANT+ Wireless Bike Cadence Sensor Speed IP67 Waterproof

I bought a pair of these to try to convert my Merach under desk bicycle into something that would play nice with tracking reasonable data for indoor bike activity via my Garmin ForeRunner 965. Both of the Cyclus sensors connected without issue to the watch via ANT, with a pedal icon for the cadence setting, and a speedometer icon for speed setting. Accessing the battery compartment is a bit strange, as instead of twisting the back panel in a full circle, you just set the dial to directly between the two possible settings, then gently pull it open. These ship with a plastic sheet between the battery and the connectors, which needs to be removed before they'll boot up. These were a tight fit on the cranks, and I could just barely slide them into place on the inner side, as long as I didn't add either of the rubber pads. They stay in place just fine without them, however. As my picture shows, the fit was tight enough that I got some white circles on the inner plastic cover while using them from some light friction. Unfortunately, in this position, I can't see the light indicators for their remaining battery life, but I'm glad there was a way to make them attach! Perhaps unsurprisingly, installing only the cadence to the crank had no impact on the watch's speed or distance calculations during a test cycle session. Lacking access to any wheel hub, I wondered if it would be possible to get acceptable readings by getting creative with the calibration and attaching the speedometer to the other crank, similar to how it installs for cadence. And as it turns out...yes! Repeatedly manually adjusting the "wheel size" calibration for the speed via my watch, I kept doing brief test runs and comparing the speeds to the built in LCD panel on my bicycle and my watch readings to calibrate and dial things in. With a manually set wheel size of 43 43 mm, it was pretty consistently within a 0.1 to 0.3 mph margin of error during glance comparisons at the speed gauges when pedaling with a consistent speed in my usual pedaling speed ranges, which is anywhere from 9mph to 16mph. After making sure to clear data stored on the bicycle so both were starting at a distance of 0, after a longer cycling session of about 1 hour and 30 minutes, the built in panel on my bicycle read a distance of 15.6 miles, and the final distance report from the Cyclus sensors to my watch was 15.3 miles. So extremely close! When initially writing my review, I thought the final distance gap was larger after another extended ride, but that was user error in setting up my comparisons, so I re-did my test to get a more accurate comparison. So, I feel pretty confident in the manual calibration of 43 43 mm as a starting point to calibrate the accelerometer, if installing both the cadence and speed to an under-desk bicycle via the cranks, even though that isn't the recommended install method. The tension control on my bicycle was set to the highest setting (8), if that matters at all in any of these calculations. While I am using them in a somewhat unconventional manner, these Cyclus sensors were still a nice upgrade to the functionality of my Merach bicycle, and I'm quite happy with them!

Thest are the second and third cadence sensors of the same brand that I have bought. Not to replace defective ones but I have an unusual use for them. I install them on paddles to count the paddle stroke rates in ocean canoeing. This is the cadence of this sport. The installation with the longer rubber band is a snap. The shaft of a paddle is very similar to the handlebar or wheel hub of a bicycle. A CYCPLUS computer instantly recognizes the sensors and uses the data they transmit. The only modification, or rather addition, I made was to tape the installed sensors over with electrician's splicing tape. That fuses to itself and provides a watertight and also hydrodynamic cover.

I have purchased 9 of these sensors and used them for over a year and a half. They are easy to install, connect readily with my Garmin Edge Explore 2 cycling computer, and provide accurate readings. I have not had to change any batteries yet. Great warranty support too! I recently had trouble with a sensor reporting inaccurate cadences. I contacted the company and asked for help. They immediately replied and sent a replacement after I provided proof of purchase and documentation of the faulty output. CycPlus warrants these units for two years. It is important to tape the sensor to your crank to ensure it stays on in rough conditions. The rubber band mounts work well most of the time, but I have lost two units while gravel riding. I recommend using self-fusing silicone tape to ensure that they stay in place.

For a dumb trainer indoors. AI recommended a couple of apps for this, the instructions hadn't specified that. One app was broken apparently, and the CYCPLUS app mysteriously no longer on Google Play. I got Wahoo fit and works great. I would have gone with the Wahoo sensor just to reward their having an impressive app that works.

I purchased the Wahoo RPM Cadence for a stationary bike, and needed a second cadence sensor. Based on a recommendation from someone else, I tried the CYCPLUS and am very pleased with it's low-price/good-performance. I only needed it for its candence sensor, and its RPM readings are identical to what comes out of the Wahoo for less than half the price. The CYPLUS is also a speed sensor, but I don't need one. Definitely recommend!

Purchased this awhile back for use on one of my bikes that is at my in-laws house. Was planning a multi day self supported tour and didn't have a ANT+ sensor on the bike up there. Instead of removing and bringing my Garmin one, I bought this CYCPLUS one. It didn't work then. Would be really spotty about pairing with a Garmin Edge 130. Fast forward some time, I brought it home and had it on my shelf. Have another newer Garmin since then and thought I'd try it on my city bike / hybrid bike. Set up ok, but even with new battery it would lose signal from the Garmin. I'd only know this as the Garmin popped up a notification every time it would re-connnect. I've had other sensors, both Garmin and also third party. All have been reasonable and easy to use except this one. Not the best in quality and way past time I can send back. Save your money. Time to pass this one by.

Super easy to pair. I love the fact you get to choose if you want to use it as a speed sensor or a cadence sensor. Very cool feature. I bought the package that came with two sensors. Super easy to install. I use it with my Garmin Vivoactive 4 and my Garmin Edge 840. I have nothing bad to report on these. I do recommend.

Económico y fiable.

Prodotto conforme alla descrizione e consegnato nei tempi previsti. Però far pagare 5,90€ ad un utente Premium mi è sembrato eccessivo visto anche il costo del sensore (comunque mea culpa che mi sono accorto all'ultimo momento).

Do the job, but you can choose between seed or cadence.

Used only for indoor cycling so can't test speed sensor - cadence meter works perfectly. Good value.
