"Great for indoor resistance training!"

I purchased this computer to replace another Cateye that was a front-wheel sensor (speed/distance) because I recently started using a resistance trainer indoors and needed crank (cadence) and rear-wheel (speed/distance) sensors. Nice features and easy to mount and wire. 5 stars

"Just What I Expected"

I recently purchased this to replace an older broken computer. The cadence helps significantly with training. Wireless is always nice, but considering price this computer is perfect. It was easy to install and is easy to use. 4 stars

"Ok..but not great"

While I like the functions this offers, the screen is a bit hard to read when riding. Also, the instructions aren't very easy to follow. For example, it is displaying in kilometers per hour but the instructions don't say how to convert to miles/hour. I would probably not buy this again. 2 stars

"Very functional, remembering configuration sequences can be a challenge"

This is my first cycling computer and I've been happy with it. I've owned it for about 4 months and have done dozens of rides with a total of over 400 miles on the odometer. It is easy to ride and switch between the different viewing modes and is easy to read even in sunlight.

This product is very functional and works as advertised. I really like the "auto start" mode where the odometer and elapsed time start automatically when wheel rotation is detected. Without it I would forget to restart the timer often.

As noted in other reviews the various combinations of button pushes are a bit cryptic and take some practice getting to remember. I'll eventually dig out the manual again to figure out how to set the time to DST :-) ... or maybe I'll just wait until the time is right again! Actually, the one that bugs me the most is the "trip meter reset" which I usually end up having to try two or three different times to get it right.

The one feature I wish it had was an "cycle through modes" option where the values displayed would automatically cycle through the secondary display modes (avg speed, max speed, elapsed time, trip, odometer) without having the press a button on the unit.
