rouxtjie Posted December 10, 2013 Share am referring to some sort of magnet on the crank arm?Back of the magnet should have double sided tape....and a slot for a cable tie....secures it well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted December 10, 2013 Share am referring to some sort of magnet on the crank arm? Yes you need one, how else will the unit detect the cadence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissVan Posted December 10, 2013 Share am referring to some sort of magnet on the crank arm? Any magnet, does not matter if its a shimano, campag, sram, garmin, apple iTunes, or hardware shop magnet.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRW Posted December 10, 2013 Share looks like its similar to the one on the trek frames left magnet should be spoke magnet for speed....right one should be crank for cadence spoke magnet lines up in center of "aerial" thingy (right side of sensor) cadence one lines up with the "RS" writing on sensor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwissVan Posted December 10, 2013 Share thanks swiss..... I forgot to mention Polar.... Also the stronger the better.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissVan Posted December 10, 2013 Share And a tube of glue? Double sided tape But tbh bike specific cadence magnets with a nice flat surface for the tape and slot for a tyrap are safest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
