Create a LINEAR cycle motion

Hi, how can I create a cycle motion without the smooth applied?

When i applied cycle to a keyframe it feels like it is easing in and out at the brief point of the cycle but I want it as a linear motion so the loop is not detectable.

apply linear interp type to the keys at the start and end of cycle then reapply cycle to the last. If you're cycling (say) from 0 - 360 degrees at then you need to cycle back to one frame AFTER the initial key other wise you'll have two consecutive frames ... 360, 0, ...

Got it sorted out, thanks for the quick reply!
