so far, so good June 21, 2007

the only reason this is not getting five stars is because i need to ensure the longevity of this speedometer.
but the pertinent features of this speedometer-- like speed and distance-- work quite well.
Installation is easy and securing the stage to the bicycle itself is simple. Parts and such seem sturdy.
The instrument's speeds and distances are not only accurate, but precise-- computer measures thousandths of miles! An interesting feature is that the computer seems to know when you are walking beside your bicycle-- when i walked beside the bike through a hallway it only registered distances in hundredths of miles instead of thousandths and didn't register a speed in mph even though it recorded these small distances.
The thermometer works well but is slow to register accurate temps, at least in the summertime (range minimum is 32 F-- pretty lousy). But this, the calorie and fat burning calculators are all frivolous features which have nothing to do with the speedometer's central purpose.
The computer's face has large, easy-to-read digits and the LCD screen is backlit, but the instruction manual does not indicate how to activate the backlight. The LCD backlight stays lit for about 5 seconds then deactivates-- similar to the old "indiGLO" watches in the 1990's. The backlight is pretty weak and difficult to read at night anyway, so I've incorporated a separate, small lamp to illuminate the computer's face during night rides which is a vast improvement.
Switching between modes/features on the computer is a little confusing since the instruction manual does not accurately describe how to properly utilize all of its functions.
overall, I look forward to many rides with this instrument on board my bike. I recommend this purchase over the lesser-priced Bell products or the cheap things from Wal-Mart. Well worth the $30.
 Best Buy in a multifunction bike computer! April 29, 2007

I've owned two of these and ridden in all 4 seasons, driving rain, blinding snow, and even the occasional sunny, warm day. I've never had a problem with either, and find them very easy to set up and calibrate, easy to use, and totally accurate, dependable and reliable.
Under $10! Can't be beat! Ride on!!
Neat gadget for the money December 1, 2006
