As a new Garmin 830 user I was disappointed at how slow it was at updating speed in GPS only mode. I could see from my old bike computer that the Garmin display was often way off. The speed sensor fixed it right up. I bought the speed-cadence bundle because it was on sale and they’ve both worked great: easy install and pairing, head unit detects them and any other sensors with no effort.

Both my wife and I have these to connect to our Garmin 520+ computers. They are easy to mount on a wheel and the cranks, and it is easy to adjust the location if you find yourself hitting the cadence sensor with your stroke.

These are great for trainer use, giving you interesting data when you have to ride in place. Meanwhile, if you have to load your bike for a drive for a ride, the speed sensor is a bother. It will register each walk from house to car as a ride, and post that amazing data to strava. Took it off after getting kudos on one too many .39 mile rides.

These work well, but I didn't ask for clunky-looking items to mount on my crank arms and hubs. Why did Garmin discontinue the dual sensor that mounted neatly on the chain stay. Probably because all of those that I owned eventually failed. All they needed to do was update the housing and seal it better.

This combo was really easy to set up and use. The only issue was the mounting system for the speed sensor. The bands aren't long enough to accommodate an internally geared hub but I was able to add an additional band I had. Using it on my recumbent on an older trainer to add some stats for motivation. Easy to pair with my phone and Garmin vivoactive 3 watch once you get the hang of it.

I installed the new speed sensors on my new carbon wheel set. It is a much safer and easier installation from the older style sensor, which actually damaged my carbon rim. It installs very easily as well.

I'm gradually winding my way into the new century with my first wireless Garmin setup, and I've been accumulating various widgets to that end. I have these paired to a little Garmin Edge 25 and it works fine. I also have a Varia 2 in the mix and it all works. The only caveat is that I have to start riding before I turn on the Head unit and it then recognizes all 3 devices.

With all of my stay-mounted Garmin dual sensors now failed, this is the only Garmin option. I wish these weren't so bulky and ugly. They work fine and can be easily transferred. Garmin should repair or replace the dual sensor parts instead of keep making more electronic waste.

I bought the speed sensor to see how fast i was on a second bike. The cadence sensor measures my peddle speed against my actual speed 20 mph and im at 92 cadence
Review by Thomas
I monitor my exertion by keeping a close eye on my cardiac This combined with my speed and pace help me meter out my energy for a long ride. These work as advertised and were simple to install and pair with my Garmin 1030
Review by Baggins
Speed is on the front wheel hub and the cadence is on the left pedal crank. They are easy to assemble and place on the bike.

These were an easy and clean setup. Paired easily and off on a ride right after installing. I'd buy them again.

The sensors work every time with no hassle. Easy to mount. Just sync to your head unit the first time and use them. And there's the bonus of moving them from bicycle to bicycle as well.
Review by Marz
It was very easy to sync with current Garmin account. Turns on automatically when I start a ride. Speed censor also stores rides without starting activity.
Review by RocketJohn
Garmin sensors are tried and true, love the ability to mount them temporarily on any bike I want to ride that day.

I got this for riding rollers in the winter to work on cadence. It was so easy to set up and use. I interfaced it to the Garmin 830z
