description The paper focuses on the detectors used to detect bicycles. It contains research part which describes various methods of bicycle detection and their possible advantages and disadvantages. The other part focuses on testing the methods under real conditions. Testing on 32 different location was conducted. The data from these tests were used to select the appropriate technology for each specific use case. The results show that current detectors are not the best option for bicycle detection and that videodetection and piezoelectric strips are the best way to go.
