I picked one of these up for my son who is just getting racing and needed a simple, reliable computer to track his progress and keep an eye on his cadence.
He was able to use it easily and it has held up well in the wet, wet winter weather.
Cons: Sensor mounts could be a bit more versatile.

Yes No Report as InappropriateGreat computer. Good price, easy to use, and after a refresher, not that hard to program. The buttons are small and finicky. I do like the click-through menu - easy to use while riding (hit the face and the whole unit pivots to toggle through the menus). There are no silly multiple layered menus which are hard to navigate through or require double button sequences.
However, I have cleared the settings many times when stopped by leaning on it, grabbing the bike by the bars to move it, or trying to remove the unit from its holder at the end of a ride.
The batteries seem to last well in this unit, both receiver and transmitter. We now have 4 of these, and for the price, its a good go-to for simple ride tracking.
Pros: Ease of function, menu sequence, good multiline display, easy to read. Good battery life.
Cons: Buttons work so well, the memory can be cleared too easily while moving bike or removing unit.
