Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Monitor your pedaling cadence as you ride with this self-calibrating, wireless speed/cadence sensor. It measures and reports your pedaling strokes per minute, providing feedback for optimal performance.

Amazon.com Product Description:
A good companion for Garmin's Edge 305 and 305CAD cycle computers and the Garmin Forerunner 305 personal trainer, the GSC 10 monitors your cycling rhythm for up-to-the-minute results and later analysis. The self-calibrating, wireless unit measures both speed (in pedaling strokes per minute) and cadence , then provides feedback to the user for optimal performance. You can later feed the results to Garmin's Training Center software, which helps you tailor your workouts to meet specific goals and objectives.

Like the Garmin heart rate monitor, the GSC 10 attaches easily to your bike, where its sensors detect signals from your wheels and send the information wirelessly to your personal trainer/cycle computer. It's also backed by a one-year warranty.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Works Great
Does everything as advertised. With the bicycle function, it makes me happy I bought the 305 vs. the 405. I can only kick myself for buying an actual bike computer three months earlier.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Speed/cadence sensor won't stay put!
The mounting process for the cadence sensor is fairly weak when you consider composite/carbon fiber chainstays and tapered tubes. The zip-ties aren't tight enough to keep the unit from sliding one way or the other and it eventually moves too far away from the magnets. Strong double-stick or industrial Velcro would be a better mount.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Sensitive
Cool tool to use if you can get it to synch properly. It is verrrry sensitive and if the adjustment is not perfect your cadence will not register. After several bike rides I find that I have had to readjust it each time. My ADD is starting to kick in and I am finding this to be a pain. It is entirely possible that due to operator error I may have not installed it properly at the beginning. Once hooked up properly it sychs seemlessly with the Garmin.

So if you have the patience( and good installation skills) go ahead and get it, the price makes it an easy purchase and this can be a beneficial tool in your training.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is great
I purchased this product a few months ago. Installed it very easly. It took about 10 min for the installation. Works great. I wish I had this stuff when I was racing.





Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Garmin GSC 10 Speed Cadence sensor
I am using this on my second bike - and it and the entire Garmin Edge 305 system, works very well.
The Edge 305 has multiple bike profiles, so I've tuned the second profile to this sensor.
Care needs to be taken to install the sensor correctly so it aligns properly with both speed and cadence magnets.
The only observation is that the cadence magnet, the one that sticks on the left crank, is a little tricky to space relative to the sensor. In one bike it required a home-made spacer, such that it would bring it closer (within spec) to the sensor. This will depend on your bike and as I said I only had to build this for one of my bikes. Still, it would be nice if Garmin offered such a spacer.

On paper, the Mio DigiWalker P550 looks to be an attractive gadget for the mobile professional, combining the capabilities of a PDA and GPS into one device. However, its poor battery life and subpar navigation skills tell a different story.

Though it won't appeal to the masses quite yet, the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet is a nice, portable device for on-the-go Web browsing, and it has some worthy upgrades.

Though it has a few design and performance glitches, the Sony Ericsson W300i is a quality, basic MP3 cell phone.

Diesel vehicles have nearly a 50-percent market share in Europe, thanks to tax incentives and diesel-friendly legislation across the EU. Diesels are so passé there that you can buy a BMW 730d and no one will think it odd that your luxury car burns oil. Pull up in a diesel 7-Series in America and people would leer at you like you've alighted from an amphibious vehicle reeking of saltwater and dead trout.

But now, thanks to the oft-reported combo of newly-raised CAFE standards, not-so-newly-raised gas prices, and the 50-state diesel engine, GM, Ford, and Chrysler are about to dip more than a hesitant toe into the diesel game. Chrysler offers a diesel in the Grand Cherokee, but soon all three automakers will offer diesels in their best-selling lineups of light trucks -- the Dodge Ram 1500 is expected to offer a 50-state diesel after 2009. Light trucks are being used to lead the charge since those buyers stand to gain the most with the least amount of (perceived) sacrifice.

Diesels currently have 3.2-percent of the American market. Some estimates put them at 15-percent by 2015. That's a huge leap, and diesel still has plenty of hurdles. Diesels will come with a cost premium over gasoline-engined cars. That should be easy enough to conquer -- incentives and some quick cost and longevity calculations should convince people of the benefit. The real hurdle is the nagging issue of perception. The plan will probably be to attack that with a price that makes the proposition unbeatable. Said Chrysler's director of environmental affairs, "If it's priced right, we can sell diesel here. Diesel can give you an immediate poke in fuel economy -- 20 to 40 percent. Not many technologies can deliver that today."
