That is generally why Trackies and BMX riders do well at our events, they (over) train their cadence as it affects their racing.
The GB track team have what they refer to as a clown bike which has 100mm cranks which they use to over train their cadence. Chris Hoy had the record on that a couple of years ago with a peak of 311 and all the top sprinters peak at over 300, which is far more than they ever get to in a race.
