Compatibility of the speed (BSS) and/or cadence (BCS) sensors
The new Bike Speed Sensor (BSS) and Bike Cadence Sensor (BCS) will work with all new cycling sensor compatible fitness devices and even some old ones. Devices that are compatible with the original Garmin bike sensor, GSC 10, may not be guaranteed to work with the new sensors.
If your device is not pairing and not on the list below, you may need to update your software using Garmin Webupdater.
Devices NOT compatible with new Bike Speed and Bike Cadence sensors:
*The Forerunner 620 will pair with either the BSS or BCS, but is unable to pair with both at the same time. When searching for Bike Sensors on the Forerunner 620 the device will pair with the sensor that is detected first.
