COOSPO Bike Cadence Speed Sensor BK467, Bluetooth ANT+ Cadence Sensor for GPS Bike Computers, Tracking Cycling Speed and Distance RPM, Compatible with Zwift Wahoo Peloton Openrider Rouvy APP

Both sensor work and are accurate and very easy to set up…. They work with my Garmin cycle computer. The bands appear strong and hold the devices well, it would probably be wise to tape on for further safety if doing gravel or rough terrain…. Certainly good value for money alternative.

I bought this for use with the Peloton+ app. I'm using my road bike on a stand rather than a peloton bike and so had no idea at the cadence I was pedalling. This Coospo cadence sensor has been brilliant, it was easy to fit to the pedal and I've subsequently used it with both iphone, android and tablets and had no connectivity issues at all. I've been using it daily for half an hour each day for about a month and not needed to recharge it yet. It has made all the difference to my workouts, would highly recommend.

Works fine with its own App, only small downer is it doesnt show calories used during the work out. It does show them once you have finished though. Hooks up to app easy and on indoor bike you can share sensor with others all on own app. Easy switch from spped to cadence.

These are great. Fiddled round with batteries a bit to check I had one set for cadence, the other for speed. Paired instantly to both my Garmin Forerunner 55 and Cadence app on my phone, attached them to my crank and rear hub and hey presto my basic/dumb turbo trainer is giving me some useful figures alongside the heart rate from my Garmin watch. Not the be all and end all but definitely useful to be able to focus on holding your speed or cadence. Very good value and worthwhile I reckon.

Wanted these to use with the zwift app but I can’t get the speed one to work at all so they’re essentially useless to me. Very frustrating.

I just bought a new bike and wanted to fit speed and cadence sensors that would connect to my Garmin VivoActive 5 watch, so that I could accurately track my activities. These are great! Nicely packaged with rubber “bands” in a variety of sizes and two rubber backing pads - one flat for the cadence sensor and the other with a curve on it to help it sit snugly on a wheel hub. The instructions were clear and simple. Open the battery compartment, remove the thin plastic disc, replace the battery. LED flashes when battery inserted - blue representing Cadence setting, then remove and replace battery a second time and it flashes red to represent Speed setting. Once done they fitted onto the crank (cadence) and hub (speed) easily with the rubber bands. (There is also a spare of each of the three sizes just incase, which is a nice touch). Adding to my Garmin was simple - Settings, Accessories, (I have Auto Discover set to on), Add New, Speed/Cadence and it starts searching for the sensors. A quick spin of the crank and wheel activates the sensor and the watch “sees” it. You’ll add the speed and cadence sensors one at a time since they are separate units. Nearly done! You just need to configure the tyre circumference. Under Accessories you’ll see the speed and cadence sensors listed. Tap the speed sensor entry, and look for the wheel size option. I manually entered mine (no idea how the Auto option works!). You can either try and measure the outer diameter of the tyre and multiply by pi (3.14ish) or lay a tape measure out on the floor, place the bike with the front wheel valve at the 6 o’clock position and at zero on the tape measure and carefully push the bike forward along the edge of the tape until the valve has rotated once and is in the 6 o’clock position again. Take the measurement there and pop it into the watch. (My 700c road tyre was 2136mm just as an idea) Now you’re good to go! Just start the Bike/cycling activity on your watch and it’ll automatically detect the sensors as soon as you start to move. Accuracy looks pretty spot on as I used it on a track which is exactly a mile, and taking the best line around the track, after 5 miles, it showed the mile marker only around 10 feet before I crossed the start/finish line (and to be fair, I probably ran a little wide on a few corners, so the variance was probably down to the line I was taking, not the accuracy of the sensor!). All in all, very pleased with all aspects of these sensors, and they are quite discreet on the bike since they are two sensors with accelerometers and don’t rely on magnets attached to spokes/cranks to activate them. Photos show cadence sensor on Shimano 105 crank arm, speed sensor on Mavic rear hub and the spare rubber bands. The large was just right for the large diameter of the rear hub and the small for the crank arm. 6th Feb 2015 - Update - I was so pleased with these that I just bought the Coospo HRM chest band, which also came nicely packaged, was easy to set up and appears to work very well!

Excellent cadence sensor. Purchased it to replace my Polar cadence sensor as the battery cannot be replaced. This cadence sensor gets a 10/10 from me as I’ve just had a 30 miles off road test run with the sensor and it performs great. Instantly synced to my Polar M450 head unit. It’s great that this unit will not end up in landfill as you can very easily replace the battery. A well designed unit.

Had my sensor set up for cadence and it was very accurate for the ~100km it lasted until it fell off! I had my sensor securely attached to the inside of my crank arm with both the rubber padding and the tight rubber bands, and yet it managed to fall off during a ride. Good value for money and easy to connect to bike computer/mobile app, just make sure you attach it very securely!

Muy fácil de instalar y poner en marcha, funciona perfectamente.

Very happy! Garmin can make a hole in the wallet. It has no signal transmission issue. I have been using it for 2 months now.

UPDATE: I've been using these sensors for several months now and just raced the SERC #3 race in Bryson City 1-14-2019. Weather was a mess and the tracks was all mud as it poured rain on us through the entire event. The sensors worked flawlessly and took the punishment of the mud and grime, including being completely submerged. I ride XC and some Enduro, putting about 3000 miles a year on my equipment. I was attracted to these because they were self contained FOB style at a very nice price point. Therefore, I purchased 2 of these sensors, one for cadence and the other for wheel speed. Currently I run them connected to a Lezyne cycling computer. However, for purposes of this review, I took the time to connect directly to an iPhone 6 and verified connectivity with both Wahoo and Strava (see attached pictures). The product comes in a sturdy, retail box with nice packaging. It includes the sensor, 2 large bands, 2 smaller bands and 2 mounting pads. Instructions are also included and have an English version that is easy to understand. The included bands are thicker in diameter than some of the others I have seen with Garmin and other devices, which is nice as I believe they will hold up better. I would estimate the thickness to be about 3.5 ml vs the 1.5~2 ml ones from other manufacturers. There are 2 rubber mounting pads, each are a different style. One is flat and the other concave. The flat one is used for mounting on a crank arm, the curved for your wheel hub. Installation is a snap, however, if you have a small J hook or similar dentistry tool, it will make installing the retaining bands a little easier. Remember, tight is good as you don't want them to move once installed. The mounting hooks on the sensor have a split in the middle, and it's the correct width for a small zip-tie. Although the bands look like they will do the job, I've added the extra security of a zip-tie. Being a mountain biker, I have been known to knock magnet sensors off my cranks that were secured by only bands. Setup: This is pretty straight forward. You will need to open the battery door with a coin or key and remove a plastic film which keeps the battery from making contact. When you reinstall the battery, you will want to do it with the top of the sensor facing you to see the light, as it doesn't stay on for very long. The color of the light is how you determine what mode it is in (speed or cadence). To toggle modes, simply remove and reinstall the battery. No buttons or complicated setup required, that's it. Pairing: First I paired to my Lezyne computer, which recognized them immediately. Once I had them connected, both icons were visible on the main screen. (see attached images). Also, in my images you will see 2 shots of the computer, one showing a speed reading, and the other a cadence reading. I tumbled each separately in my hand to confirm transmission. Next, I opened Strava on my iPhone 6 and paired from the Strava sensors page. Cadence mode will connect either individually under 'Cadence' or as cadence under 'Speed & Cadence' (see screen shots). However, speed mode will not connect. NOTE :: THIS IS A STRAVA ISSUE. You can go to the support threads on Strava's website and see plenty of discussions on the speed sensor issue. I do not know why Strava will not fix this issue, but using the Strava iPhone app with a speed sensor doesn't work. I posted a workaround for this on the support thread, but the long of the short is to use WaHoo or other app for recording and then share it to your Strava account. It's inconvenient, as you have 1 extra step, but it works. For Wahoo app on the iPhone, setup was a snap. A really nice thing about wahoo, is it will display the broadcast serial number for the sensor which is also printed on the back of each sensor. In the event you pull them off your bike for cleaning and mix them up, Wahoo will help you identify which is which (see screen shots). Durability: I have not had these sensors long, but they do appear to be well built and the battery door has a nice water and dust proof seal. I will only update this post if there are issues with durability. My Thoughts: If you are looking for a good set of sensors that are small, self contained and do not require magnets, at are really good price point, I would highly recommend trying a pair of these, it really seems an obvious purchase choice. My thoughts on CooSpo - I originally came across this company 3 years ago on aliexpress. I have purchased several of ther HRM chest straps and 2 Cadence/Speed combination units. I've never had any issues and I've only replaced units that I lost, or I damaged from severe off road riding. Their previous products have lived up beyond my expectations and I have high hopes for these newer models.

Followup to followup review ---- I reached out to the mfg about the broken ear causing the sensor to fall off, and preventing it from being mounted. After verifying that I mounted it correctly, they quickly send me a replacement. I wrapped the sensor with electrical tape just to be safe. Looking at the sensor after roughly one week, I can see the silicone band snapped under the tape. So there is definitely some weakness with the band, as this is the second one that broke. Followup review ---- On one of my ride, I glanced down and saw my cadence being blank and noticed the sensor not there anymore. I saved and replayed my ride to see where the cadence stopped, rode back 3 miles and found the sensor Turns out the one of the ears where the silicone band hooks onto broke off, just as I had concern about. I went back a couple of days later and found the rubber backing along with a fragment of the silicone bend. So now I am not sure if the broken ear or band that caused the sensor to fall off. Now I have to wrap it with tape after mounting so it doesn't come off. After less than 500 miles, that's pretty fragile. It might be the reason I lost the original one. Dropping from 5 stars to 3. One thing I also noticed is the cadence update is a few seconds behind, so if you mount this on your stationary bike and want to see your peak cadence, you are not going to get that. Original review ---- This is a replacement for my last Coospo sensor that fell off my crank. The replacment works fine as expected. I do like the fact it has ANT+ and BLE, so it could send data to my bike computer and phone at the same time. Weird that a 2 pack cost more than 2 single pack, which is what I purchased. I read you can't pair both at the same time via BLE, but I using another brand's speed sensor, which is no problem. A couple of minor issues. The form factor is squarish, which makes it stick out when attached to a hub or to my old school crank. This time, I mounted in between the spider on the chainring side so nothing would bump into it (unless a dropped chain does). The other thing is removing the battery to change between cadence and speed sensor mode. I've had others where there is a tiny switch internally. By the time the battery needs to be changed, I would have forgotten if the blue or red light indicates it being in cadence mode. I would find out there is no cadence reading, then have to go into the app or bike computer to see what type of device is discovered. Probably have to stuff the instruction into somewhere obvious, which I would not remember 8 months down the line.

I bought this product for using on my Indoor trainer. This is working well with my bike computer as well. Its really awesome!
