Specialized fact and sworks are not compatible. It is frustrating as the convenience in swapping pedals between bikes is easy but your SOL on certain bikes. Garmin claims that they are working ona longer cable to help resolve this issue but I don't want to wait on what could be a very long time. I love the idea of pedal smoothness from the vector and left/right individual power given my recent injury but it just doesn't look like it will happen.

Edit: also you need 3mm between the Cain and frame in top gear. In my 52/11 I have 2mm, ideally garmin wants 5mm....come on garmin
