What is the easiest way of knowing the rpm whilst using turbo trainer?

A cycle computer with a cadence sensor.

Ha! I wrote 'count' then thought "nah, CBA to put that", but actually, counting for 15 seconds gives a good idea.

A bike computer will work on the turbo. It also has the side effect of working off the turbo. I don't know if this is a problem to you?

Only a rear wheel mounted one, although the cadence will of course work regardless.

Righto - thanks.
