These issues include: lack of resistance, fluctuations in power readings, long delays in resistance adjustment. If you’re experiencing these issues please submit a support inquiry . Thank you for yo…

Hello, if it can comfort yourself, it’s the problem that is gripping too many Elite users lately. And it’s happening to me too. Personally, I have seen a problem with the Garmin cadence sensors, you have to use the Elite one. Try that first.
