I'm looking for a wireless with cadence. Anyone with
positive or negative experiences with wireless bicycle
computers with cadence is appreciated - basically looking
for models to avoid or models worth trying out.

Hi mark,

I was looking for one too but couldn't get a wireless one
with cadence. The Bike Shop in Harrow suggested that the
distance is too great between the handle bars and the crank.
In the end I got a Cateye Astrale, which works great.

My Polar 510 has this option, but I never really got the
cadence to work properly. Mind you, it was fitted to a
softride, and it's not too easy to find anywhere to put the
cadence sensor in the first place!

I'm glad you brought up the 510. I have a "wired"
Performance Axiom(cheap, but has lasted several years)with
cadence, and I just last year got the s510. I've not had
100% success with it as a cyclo-computer. It's intermittent
- and when it does work for a full ride tends to be off on
its speed. (I don't know if the wired system is
interfering...)

I've thought about getting the cadence sensor, but I haven't
yet decided that I need to spend $40 just so that I can have
another graph to analyze.

I have the 720i and say it works flawlessly, both speed and
cadence, both wireless. Just pulled down the race bike from
the rafters and all functions work as they should. I did
have to replace the cadence sensor battery shortly after I
purchased it, but since then it has been great. Although if
it wasn't great I would send tt back to them, because it's
to much money not to work right. It's on a Cervelo P2K.

Same here with the S710. Perfect.

Came across this a while back. Have never used it since I
also have a Polar
710. I like the average cadence feature on the Polar model.
Something you don't get with the above model. M~
