On a bicycle, the relationship of torque and cadence is tunable: if a rider's legs are uncomfortable pedaling rapidly but can push with enormous force, they can select a higher gear than a more typical rider would choose; their resulting pedal stroke would be unusually slow, but otherwise need not be kinematically-whacky in the way that super-low-cadence running would be.
