Wahoo RPM Speed Sensor

GBP 29.99 — In stock
A magnet-less speed sensor that mounts on your wheel hub and reports wheel speed and distance. 7 grams, CR2032 battery good for up to twelve months, IPX7 sealed, and nothing to align.
Read this before ordering if you train indoors. This sensor measures a rotating wheel. It is explicitly not compatible with spin bikes, and it will do nothing useful on a direct drive trainer because your rear wheel is off the bike. If you want indoor data from a spin bike or a direct drive trainer, you want the cadence sensor instead.
Who this suits
Outdoor riders who want speed and distance without a GPS computer, and riders on wheel-on trainers and rollers where the rear wheel still turns — including the KICKR ROLLR and roller setups like the Elite Arion Mag. On those, a speed sensor gives your app something real to work with.
Who should not buy this
Spin bike and gym bike owners — Wahoo state clearly it is not compatible. Direct drive trainer users, because there is no rear wheel turning. In both cases the cadence sensor is the right part.

Frequently asked questions
Will it work on my spin bike?
No. Wahoo state it is not compatible with spin bikes. Use the cadence sensor.
Will it work with my direct drive trainer?
Not usefully — your rear wheel is removed, so there is nothing to measure. Direct drive trainers report speed themselves.
Will it work on rollers or a wheel-on trainer?
Yes. The rear wheel still turns, so it reports speed normally.
Does it need a magnet?
No, and there is nothing to align.
