For the price, amazing.

I've been using this computer for a few weeks now and have clocked up 800 miles on it. I haven't had to change the batteries yet, so I don't know how long they last, but it's clearly at least several weeks or 800+miles, so one can hardly complain about that. I suspect the battery in the wheel attachment/transmitter may go first, but who knows?

This computer shows clock, odomoter (total distance), trip distance, average speed (ride), top speed (ride), current speed, and trip time. You can also set the display to cycle through all of these automatically. You can choose between miles/h or km/h. If you want fancy stuff about calories, power and cadence, then this simple unit is not for you. If you're like me — someone who enjoys cycling for fitness and fun, but without lycra and arm-warmers — then it's perfect. For the price, it's almost unbelievable. I half expected it either not to work, or to break after a couple of weeks, but it's still going strong. A few times, when I failed to clip it in properly the display has ended up falling on the road, but despite these bumps it's still working fine.

It is easy to fit, but you need good eyesight (or glasses) to read the tiny instructions. But they are also available online, but I am not allowed to give a link, even though it is to the manufacturer's website. Ridiculous.

After a few weeks I entered a new tyre circumference because there was a mismatch between what my cycle computer was telling me and what Strava was telling me. Even so, the disparity was only 1-2%.

The only measurement that is frequently wrong is "MXS" (Maximum Speed). This computer often tells me that I have reached an unbelievable top speed, whereas I know that my max is probably around 30mph downhill. I suspect this is because the magnet can 'double register' when you're stationary. Let's say you stop at a junction and the magnet is lined up with the sensor/transmitter — it goes haywire and calculates that you are doing 90mph!

My advice is to use Strava for the detailed speed/distance information that can be pored over after a ride, and this cycle computer for information as you ride. All I really want to know in the saddle is 'How far have I cycled?', and 'How fast am I going?'. This cycle computer tells you both of those things.

Great product

Excellent value. Easy to fit, simple to set up and straight forward to operate.Previously I used a much more expensive computer from a well known brand. This is SO much better.
Glad I bought it.
