Nice look, functional
This is a decent computer, with a lot of info that's easy to access with one button. To press the button, you push up on the computer, and it slides in the bracket. So you don't have to search for a little button while pedaling.
I have a bike with white bar tape, cables, etc. So finding a white computer was a nice aesthetic plus.
I had to get a wired model to work with my tandem.
Pros: Easily readable display, with just one button function.
Comes in white.
Cons: Initial setup is a bit of a pain.
Pressing on the casing to use the button sometimes makes it slip.

Yes No Report as InappropriateGreat computer
I have four bikes with different computers on them and this is by far my favorite. It has all the functions you need on one screen and no buttons to fool with, just push it forward and it changes screens. I have been using this on my mountain bike now for 3 years and have had no problems. I had read other reviews that this is sensitive to water, but I have had no problems with it. I usually stick it in my pocket when I wash my bike just to be safe.
Pros: Price
Simple to use
Cons: None that I have found yet
