 THANKS September 8, 2008

Amazon...
Another good job. Exactly what I wanted, on the delivery time I needed.
Thanks.
Works well with my MTB September 7, 2008
The GSC 10 uses two magnets to pick-up the speed (magnet on rear-wheel spoke) and cadence (magnet on the inside of the left crank). The installation is pretty straight forward, although, the illustrations in the directions were not the most useful.
The system has worked well so far. I have not been over the worst 'bumpy' areas yet on my MTB but have been through some rough terrain and nothing came loose.
The FR-305 is supposed to use the speed from the GSC 10 when it cannot get a lock on the GPS satellites. When MTB'ing, which many times involves making many small turns, the GPS mileage reading tends to be a little short. Thus it would be ideal of Garmin could somehow combine the readings from the GPS & GSC 10 to get a more accurate reading.
Works Great August 26, 2008
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.
 Speed/cadence sensor won't stay put! August 25, 2008
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.
Sensitive July 29, 2008
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.
