Does it work when I ride my bicycle?

I have not tried it, but I think it would work when riding your bike since the SPEED, PACE are GPS controlled, the HRM is band/transmitter/signal controlled and CHRONO is time controlled. I do not know at what rate it discharges with use and if it would last a whole, let's say" 100 or 125 mile bike ride of 5 to 7 hours. I only use the system for running. I have (actually, had, since it was a POLAR damaged by water) a heart rate monitor and a bicycle (not wire-less, not GPS) "ol" reliable cyclo computer when riding the bike.

I can speak to using it on exercise bikes - the answer is no. It won't catch all the movement because it is too smooth. My solution was to ask my wife to make me a velcro strap to go around my ankle. That works great. If you make one, use elastic and keep the fitbit between your ankle and the strap - don't hang it so it is on the outside of the strap. It'll be more secure.

Of course, cadence sensor works independtly of how many gears your bike have. Cadence sensor measures your legs rpm.

About pedestrians and bicycles....I do not think so, I tried using it to walk and nothing happened, maybe I did not walk fast enough, and I did not see anything in the little manual. I have never tried it with my bicycle. A very good question, I wish I had a better answer for you. I did not look into this as I just wanted it for our car. Maybe you can Google the question.

When I bought this device I mistakenly assumed it was a gps device. It is more of a glorified pedometer, so I would say it probably does not track bicycling.

Yes, you can manually enter your bicycling activity. It will ask you the activity, effort level, start time and duration. There are many exercise activities list on the app.

We have a multi geared bike so I am not sure. I will say that it only spins when we pedal.

For sure! But I don't recommend using headphones while cycling. It isn't safe, you need to be able to hear traffic around you. Play music through your speakerphone. Also, you may need some extra long headphones if you do decide to take that route :)

Only if it is set up that way in your phone. It doesn't do it automatically.

Since mine doesn't work any longer, I can't check it, but I would not recommend it. I know it doesn't have a stop watch feature as I remember that really annoying me. Get an inexpensive one from Performance Bicycles (Performance brand). I got this one...cheap, comfortable, and works great. http://www.performancebike.com/bikes/Product_10052_10551_1115834_-1_400131__400131

Yes it does - you can use it ion the manual mode where you set the resistance . The heart rate monitor works well on this bike. I am a heart patient as well and depended on that.

Mine works. I really don't remember but it's probably best to shift when the bike is moving. That's my guess.

Yes, most definitely, I use it when I ride my bike for an extended period of time and it is very comfortable.

I have never used it for bicycling, only running, but it should be able to compute speed and distance travelled regardless of whether you are running or on a bike.

I did not connect it. I was afraid that it would be too heavy wth my dog to steer my bicycle. I use as a car seat or strap over my shoulder to carry my dog. I am a retired older female.

Sure, but bicycle tires quickly inflate, so be mindful to turn the unit off when the Tire feels full!

It doesn't track. I think it senses the movement of your body. I've not been on a bike since I've had it.
