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.

Absolutely, its the main reason I got this particular unit. It also works with the DigiFit App, MapmyRide and several others. It also works (now) with many of the machines at the health club (treadmills, spin bikes, ecliptics etc.) The LED's are something new they installed in this model and are a great upgrade. This unit is very stable, they fixed any issues that they had with the Blue. Worth the investment. BTW, if your going to use your iphone while on the bike, its really a good investment to go with the Lifeproof case and the bikemount for the lifproof case. I run the Strava and the Mapmyride program at the same time and mount my phone on the gooseneck.

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

Yes, It does detect the speed when not pedaling, it detects the magnet attached to the wheel when passing by the unit. The Cadence will not be detected when not pedaling because the magnet for the cadence is on the pedal.

It might work on your gps if your gps has a mini usb connect for power. but it is designed to be used on a bicycle with the Garmin Edge Gps Cycling Computers.

If your referring to the navigation function it works on both presuming you have downloaded the waypoints. I use on both my mountain and road bike and mountain bike and it works great.

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.

Absolutely! I actually use it for answering the phone while I ride my bike.

Yes. All you have to do is to hit the cycle button and do the spin cycle :)

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

I don't bicycle, so I haven't tried it. But it seems as though it should work since the GPS tracks distance based on your position relative to the satellite. As long as you're moving, the distance should register.

Have you tried this product yet for cycling? I'm getting this as a gift for a cyclist...

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

it must depend on how you walk in place, this doesn't work for me. but riding an exercise bike does.

When you wear it on your shoe, it recognizes the circular movement, I guess. If you cycle/walk/run for over 10 minutes in a row it counts this as a workout, if not it just counts steps.

Yes it works just fine for biking using the foot pod. Of course you still need the strap for your heart rate. For overall watch for both running and biking I did fine the font was small and can be hard to read so it takes getting use too. I like to us my phone also and use like Mapmyrun or mapmyride app to compare distance via GPS.
