Hi everyone

I replaced my pedals the other day and in the process had to remove my garmin cadence sensor, once removed it loses it stickiness and even when tied to the crank arm wobbled and on my first ride out I lost it.

Whilst looking for a sensor I found this its a really elegant solution and fits well .

If you look on eBay you’ll find a magnet that will sit on the inside of the pedal axel, usually a bit cheaper than that and even more elegant. I’ve been using one for more than 12 months now, it’s so strong that getting it off when I replaced pedals was a right pain.
