One question about the PowerCal: It's available in a bundle with a speed sensor. Garmin also has the GSC 10 Wireless Speed/Cadence Sensor. Are those two speed sensors equivalent or does one have advantages over the other?
From the description it sounds like the GSC 10 is a cadence sensor. How many magnets are there? One on the crank, one on the wheel or just a single one? Does the Garmin sensor only sense crank revs or also wheel revs?
Basically I'm wondering if spending more on the PowerCal + speed sensor than the Garmin HR strap + Speed/Cadence sensor is worth it, or how about PowerCal (non-bundle) + Garmin GSC 10? What makes most sense?
Yes, I do understand that the Garmin HR strap doesn't offer power meter functionality.
