I can be affected by strong magnetic fields such as magnets for other sensors. Some have reported that it does not read correctly when riding over bridges built with large iron beams. Dynamo hubs can also cause interference.

How about with Chris King R45 hubs on a sunny day on a rural road in the middle of nowhere? What's Garmin's excuse for that behavior? Like I said GSC10 sensor does the same thing with E1K. Are the new sensors allergic to titanium framesets?
