That's the one I recommend everytime bargain and not much better out there unless going for GPS. Reliable, wired plus temp for those slippy mornings.

Sit on an exercise bike with a cadence function in a gym. Get used to the feel of 60rpm, 75rpm, 90rpm and 105rpm on your legs. Translate that feel out onto the road.This is the exact reason I want to at least have a look at cadence, I'm a bugger for just pushing really hard and it's a sin that's hurting my hips.
Why do you need cadence, i would have thought you would find a speed your comfortable with and stick with that, everyone must be differant and spin at differant speeds.
It's just occurred to me that my local Decathlon usually has a couple of display bikes on turbo trainers. The challenge would be getting out of the shop without buying anything.Sit on an exercise bike with a cadence function in a gym. Get used to the feel of 60rpm, 75rpm, 90rpm and 105rpm on your legs.

Alternatively, if you just want to get a faster cadence, consciously change down a gear or two and make sure you don't slow down.
