Do I need a cadence sensor?
Cadence sensors are a must for bikers and cyclists who want to maximize workout results. Many users have attempted to use the pedometer as a way of measuring distance, speed or even effort when cycling, but such a sensor proves inadequate in gauging data during cycling training.
How do I wake up DuoTrap?
Use a strong magnet and wave it over the duotrap to see if the lights come on, if they do you found the problem. You don’t get lights the entire time with the Duotrap- only when the unit is “waking up”.
What is a good cadence for a beginner cyclist?
Aiming for a cadence of 85-90 RPM is a good starting point to avoid muscle fatigue.
