Anyone got one?

I have an older wired Strada with cadence, and you can change whether the main display shows cadence or speed, with everything else in a smaller display underneath that you can scroll through.

Can you also do this on the Double Wireless, or is the main display always speed?

    YES main display is speed. I know no way of changing that.

    hey guys,

    was just having a quick browse through...Ive had a problem in that my cadence sensor stopped working, or the computer stopped recognising it. at first thought it maybe the batteries in the sensor so changed that, then mayb the ones in the computer so changed that all to no avail....this was all about a year ago and i had sort of given up on it.

    anybody had similar trouble/any clues?

    sorry to suggest something that you have probably done already - check the clearance between sensor and magnet.

    you also need to "pair" the devices when you set it up for the first time. i bet its this. caught me out when setting up for the first time.

    if you've still got the instructions have a read of the first few pages, if not basically, off the top of my head, there's a reset button on the cadence sensor and the back of the computer itself. i think you have to press the cadence reset whilst the computer is scanning frequencies etc.

    i can't think of the exact process of the top of my head, put will post up instructions when im at home later tonight.

    yea i moved all the sensors etc while doing it to make sure they were within range etc for the magnets.

    I tried reseting the computer, not exactly sure about the cadence sensor, will have to have a look, cant remember seeing a reset button on it to be honest.

    Im not sure however whether ive reset the cadence sensor while the computer has been scanning tho....

    It did work for 3 months after the shop fitted it while putting the bike together....

    cheers guys
