Review on DREAM SPORT Bike Computer Cadence Sensor - Bluetooth & 🚲 ANT+ for Spin Bike, Speedometer Zwift, Garmin, Wahoo, APP, Stationary Bicycle by Daniel Evans

I have a love/hate relationship with these sensors. First of all, I'll make a few quick points: - Be careful how you order. For some strange reason, instead of "just one sensor" or "pair", they called it "medium" and "size 10". Medium is just a sensor, so order accordingly. - Does not work with Strava. That's because Strava doesn't allow you to sync these types of sensors, so it's not the sensors' fault. I use it with Wahoo Fitness (free) and have set up that app to sync data with the fitness app. Wahoo also pulls data from Fitness. They're not designed for spin bikes, which makes a difference. Sensors decide what information to report based on where they are installed. A sensor mounted on the crank automatically reports the cadence. The speed sensor, which is also responsible for the distance, is mounted on the wheel hub for me. Spin bikes don't have a wheel hub, which means TECHNICALLY the only data you can use these sensors for is cadence from a single sensor attached to the crank. Now I'm speaking technically because I'm not the type to agree. I wanted distance more than anything, and speed was just "if I've got it, I've got it". First, I tried placing a second sensor that records speed and distance on the bike's flywheel. The sensor didn't even turn on, and here's why. It is expected to lie flat and level and rotate with the hub. On the flywheel, the sensor lies sideways and rotates in an unexpected way. And you can't install it on the outside of the wheel because of the brake/brake pad. So I improvised. My spin bike has enough of a horizontal crankshaft connecting both cranks, so I was able to mount it there. This puts the speed sensor in the same position as the wheel hub. Using my old-school bike computer, I can tell you that with this setup, the speed/distance reported by the sensor in the Wahoo app is slightly different, but not by much. For example, the trip computer says I'm going at 11 mph and the sensor tells me I'm going at 10 mph. This means your speed and distance stats will show up in the app below your actual results. I can live with that, maybe you can't. However, on a spin bike, the options for installing a speed sensor are limited. I'm well aware that my stupid screenshots I share with friends show me say 9 miles when I was actually driving closer to 10. I can even remove the cover from my crank and see if there's another spot that would be more accurate, but I doubt it. Setup is very easy, aside from my specific issue. Insert the battery, secure it with the included rubber bands and step on the pedals to activate them. When cadence is active, flashes red and speed green. Then just click on the inner (our public) loop in Wahoo and right there there is a button that says 'Add Sensors'. Click on them and after a few seconds they will appear. I changed everyone's name to Cadence and Speed respectively, but neither did yours. Ready and go! I wish they would fix the problems I had on the list. I know they show cycling in the photos, but these sensors are very popular on spinning bikes these days. I'd be even more upset if I paid for them, but since they're on Revane's behalf, I'm probably less upset. I found a way to use them to get the results I wanted.
