Your Garmin Vector PM generates cadence. Why do you not see it on your head unit?
I use a Garmin 840 and have 6 variables on my screen with the two largest numbers being 3 second power and cadence. Others are lap time and HR and etc. I can easily feel the difference between 50 and 80 rpm.
My comment about cadence was riding at 75-80 as lower and 85-95 as higher. I can tell the difference between 80 and 95 without an indication. At the track yesterday, I was at approximately 100 cadence. I knew I was riding at 100 and I did not need a meter.
Racers should be able to feel in their legs cadence and power and get it pretty close to the desired value.
