  • Page 23 Important: The smaller part of the sensor needs to face the crankarms and should not be at- tached to the top of the chainstay. You may have to tilt the main body of the sensor towards the wheel depending on your bicycle. You should make this adjustment after you have attached the spoke magnet.
  • Page 24 4. Attach the crankarm magnet to one of the crankarms on your bike. The magnet should face the chainstay where you attached the chainstay sensor. Tip: Make sure the different parts of the Cadence Sensor are lined up correctly on your bike. The spoke magnet should pass the main body of the chainstay sensor and the crankarm magnet should pass the tip of the sensor.
