Does anyone know if there is a cycle cadence tracker compatible with Surge? Can we use from another company like Polar for example? It seems that cycling is Surge's weak part.

Dear SolangeFitbit

 

I cannot say that I am happy with the answer as it is advertised as a cycling watch as well. The cycling community knows that cadence is required among the other features. I believe it would have been very easy to upgrade the software and make it compatible with so many cadence sensors available in the market in order to close this gap. Then it would have been a real value for money gadget. 

The solution you suggested, although I do not think it offers this feature I am asking for, involves other equipment like carrying your mobile with you etc.

I would look to get one that is compatible with your phone and sync that with Strava.  For cycling, I wind up using my old Zip along with my Surge because the Surge does a lousy job of converting pedaling into steps.  I clip the Zip to my shoe. Still not cadence but better step counts.
