I just let the PT estimate cadence, seems pretty close from what I can tell.
the PT virtual CAD is very erratic. it will produce a very high, but false, high. from my experience the AVG number always seems to be correct. if you want a truer real time CAD that produces a correct high then add the Garmin CAD sensor to your setup. this is what most do who are concerned about CAD in my neck of the woods.

since i got power, i kind of stopped paying attention to CAD. i still find HR data interesting, but dont focus on it either. good luck. later.
