Cateye Strada Wireless Computer

Great computer

I have used several Cateye Enduro computers on my Mt bike's in the past. I decided to try the wireless version and it's great. Cateye produces quality products.

Pros: No wire running down your fork.

Cons: Need to keep sensor near the top of your fork.

I got this computer for a touring bike. The wireless transmitter made installation easier. I mounted the sensor to the front rack instead of the fork, and communication between the sensor and display works fine with this setup.

I haven't had the computer long enough to get a sense of battery life.

Have bought a number of these computers. They work well, seem to use less battery both for the unit and transmitter than some of the others we've used. Good price, easy to read display, easy setup, easy to configure. I like the menu arrangement, and the simple pivot toggle for switching between settings is great (except as noted below). Very small footprint, good mounting arrangements.

Had switched to iPod based trackers, but its nice to keep a simple computer on your bike with all the stats that you need.

The only negative comment is that you can easily clear your ride totals just by grabbing the bar near the unit, and since clearing can happen in some of the menu settings simply by pressing the unit down (toggle switch on back gets activated as unit rocks on its pivot mount). To prevent this, I need to remember which mode to be in so that I don't clear my stats during a mid-ride accidental clear, which has happened a few times, particularly if hoisting a bike into a rack or over an obstacle during a rest break.

Pros: Nearly everything.

Strada Wireless

This is the easiest odometer Ive ever had with this many functions. I love how there are no buttons and you just touch the face. I can change the functions when riding very easily.

Pros: The touch face makes changing functions a breeze.

Cons: Sometimes I lean on the face and reset the computer on accident.

This is a great product based on its small form factor for a wireless computer with all the essential functions. It's easy to mount quickly and allows for a very clean and unobtrusive look.

Solid and very small

The best thing about this computer is the form factor. It is extremely small and unobtrusive. The data it provides is bare-bones by contemporary bike computer standards, but sometimes speed, distance, and time is more than enough. If you're after just the basics and don't want a massive $500 mini-laptop strapped to your stem, this little guy is a very nice choice.

Pros: Small and functional, not to mention durable and cheap.

Cons: Bare-bones functionality.

easy

wireless, easy to use, easy to setup, small in size with decent sized screen makes this a very good bike computer.
the versatile mount allows you to attach the computer to either the handlebar or stem.

its small size is perfect for a stem mount, thereby freeing up handlebar space.

Pros: wireless, easy to setup and use, versatile mounting options
