Customer Review: Works great, but has four negatives
I have been using this for awhile now and am posting this review of the Forerunner 405 in Black. Mine came with the heart rate monitor, the ANT+ USB stick, and the charger.
 Garmin GSC 10 Speed Cadence Sensor for Edge and Forerunner Series (010-10644-00) A good companion for Garmin’s Edge 305 and 305CAD cycle computers and the Garmin Forerunner 305 personal trainer, the GSC 10 monitors your cycling rhythm for up-to-the-minute results and later analysis. The self-calibrating, wireless unit measures both speed (in pedaling strokes per minute) and cadence , then provides feedback to the user for optimal performance. You can later feed the results to Garmin’s Training Center software, which helps you tailor your workouts to meet specific goals and objectives. Like the Garmin heart rate monitor, the GSC 10 attaches easily to your bike, where its sensors detect signals from your wheels and send the information wirelessly to your personal trainer/cycle computer. It’s also backed by a one-year warranty.
