Would this work with indoor cycling? I go to my gym's spin classes so I could not use a regular bike cadence meter since the spin bike is not mine.

s1 foot pod was designed for running, it only measures distance and speed. it wouldn't work for that purpose.

No, it would not give you an accurate read. It is meant for running/walking.

I have not had any measure of accuracy using this foot pod with an elliptical or my bike.

I use the same iFit module, rotating between my treadmill, elliptical, and recumbent bike. One iFit module can be used in multiple devices. All will be recorded on the same iFit account

Cadence works fine on a trainer. Speed is another issue. I tried moving the speed sensor to the rear wheel. This did not work well at all. The solution is a wired rear wheel speed sensor. It works perfect. Sigma Computer Mount and Wired Speed Sensor Kit, Models using CR2450

I don't know but I can't think of a reason it wouldn't as long as you can attach the sensor to a wheel fork (the two pronged metal piece that is part of the frame and holds the wheel) and the magnet to a spoke on the wheel.A regular bicycle on a stationary stand would work but perhaps not a stationary bike machine without a wheel fork and without spokes.

I don't use RPM. I use one of 3 different DVDs by Cathe Friedrich where your workout is based on level of perceived exertion. I also use a heart rate monitor on my wrist to track calories burned and whether I'm in my target heart rate range or not. Personally, I could not be happier with this bike, but then again, I've never owned a spinning bike before. I feel like I get an awesome workout and also feel like this bike was a good deal for the price I paid. Hope you find what you're looking for.

if you use this model you will need to instal the sensor + the magnet, i would recomend you to use the new garmin sensor http://www.amazon.com/Garmin-010-12102-00-Bike-Cadence-Sensor/dp/B00JLMRXCQ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1404416677&sr=8-4&keywords=cadence+sensor+garmin cause it doesnt need the magnet (its a gyroscope)

I am not sure. I use my bike to get a good workout and good sweat. You might have to look into seperate apps for that.

I used the Bluetooth to connect for heart rate in cyclometer. It worked fine in the past. I just upgraded to cyclemeter elite a few minutes ago and I can't seem to get my heart rate to show up. I'll keep working on it and let u know.

No the bike does not have any meter system at all. If you need those things look to buy a separate meter. Maybe one that monitors heart rate and tells you how many calories you have gone through. You could use the same kind of meter when you just walk.

Most spin bikes I've seen have heavy solid wheels and if yours is the same, might be difficult to mount the magnet to it as it's designed for wheel spokes. If you can rig it somehow, should work fine, but you'll have to figure what diameter you want for the wheel for distance as the unit calculates based on circumference. Maybe measure what you get with a regular bike for a more accurate representation than your spinner.

The GPS doesn't work at all indoors. You would only be able to get time and heart rate data indoor.

It won't work in spin classes, it's calibrated to your stride length and it basically counts the number of strides and then does the math.

I use the Polar HRM with the Wahoo speed and cadence, it works with all the iPhone apps I've tried it with so far. The HRM is independent of the speed/cadence.

Yes, it should work on a bike and tells you your pace, i.e. 4 minute miles, 5 minute miles, etc. Should be easy math!

I don't know how the clip will work on an indoor spinning bike, I can only speak to my experience with the light for book reading. The switch on mine was unreliable and the beam did not cover the page well.

Strava app on iOS doesn't have indoor mode. You can use cyclemeter, which does have an indoor setting for trainers.

The RFLKT+ is just a display unit and ANT+ bridge - it receives data from a compatible app such as Wahoo Fitness, Cyclemeter, or Strava. Because of the bridge, both BT and ANT+ devices can communicate with these apps, and all those three do support power meters. They all work fine with my Stages, but I don't have personal experience with a Vector - but I see no reason it would be a problem. Wahoo Fitness and Cyclemeter both give the usual power, average power and normalised power data, but the other parameters such as pedal smoothness, LR balance, and Torque effectiveness may not be supported by all apps (Wahoo Fitness is probably the best bet for power data actually, and of course was developed for use with the RFLKT+).
