Hello
I might be about to fork out for a new GPS. Most probably the Edge 705, which I can get with HRM and cadence for just under 200 quid (seems a bit of a bargain). I have read some stuff saying the widely available GSC10 works with 705 and others saying no. I am 90% certain it is compatible but wanted to confirm before ordering. I have at least 2 bikes I need cadence output for

The Product Q&A tab says it's incompatible with an EDGE 705 on the 3rd comment down. Also the Garmin site indicated 500 or 800 only, for the sensor. If this is the case - anybody know which cadence sensor will work with this? Being ANT+ I would have thought there would be a big range of sensors but digging through the ANT+ product catalogue isn't filling me with confidence.
Last thing: I am not a real slave to the mapping but it does come in handy from time to time. Would you consider an EDGE 500 a better purchase (can pick one up for maybe £15 less, with HRM and CAD)...
Cheers,
SD
