John,
Would it be possible to get the cadence to show whilst in "fitness / user created interval workouts"? Currently it only shows target watt's, current watt's, interval, time remaining / heart rate. I like to hit certain RPM's for various interval sets.

The problem with showing cadence is that then the screen becomes very cluttered. We'd have to put it into the rotation somewhere and with the bottom of the screen already switching between time and heart rate, we don't want to confuse people. . .or make them stare down at their screen for too long while riding all out.
With the limited real estate we have, it's going to impossible to meet everybody's needs for what they would like to see so we had to choose the most popular.

Since we train with power the second most important metric to me would be cadence. IMO heart rate is secondary not that power is in the equation. I would vote for showing CAD in both the in fitness/intervals and especially in trainer mode. I suggest this previously but hadn't thought about it much until this posting reminded me.

At least give the USER the option of what to display (the way Garmin does with the 205/305/605/705). I have 2 screens set up, a simple one with Cadence+HR and another with 6 fields (can't remember them all right now). The key point is that *I* pick what's important.
Speed is irrelevant to me most of the time (especially when I am indoors on the turbo)...it is a *power* meter so I'd definitely put a premium on watts over any other metric.
Thoughts?
