Cadence in cycling is the number of revolutions of the crank per minutes. A high number of revolutions per minutes is known as “high cadence” and high gears that are spun slowly is known as “low cadence”. Cyclists typically have a preferred cadence at which they feel most comfortable, and on bicycles with many gears it is possible to stick to a favorite cadence at a wide range of speeds.
