Fun Little Gadget - Electronics and Gadgets

I've always been curious about how fast I actually get on my bike so it was fun to play with. I like that it can also measure distance, time and average speed. I have my doubts that it can calculate caloric intake accurately, but it's interesting to get a general idea. The screen is large and easy to read without making the steering wheel feel too heavy. It takes a bit of fiddling to align everything during installation, but it's easy enough and the video is clear and helpful. There are a few oddities in the instructions that I attribute to the translation. The formula for measuring the circumference of a circle is R*pi, but R means diameter, not radius. The chart clearly shows the measurement as a diameter, but it's a little confusing. One issue is that the handlebar mount is huge. Ridiculously big, for example. With the ends pressed together, its diameter is 30 mm. My handlebar has a diameter of approx. 22 mm. We have two bikes in the family and both have the same handlebar size, which seems pretty normal to me. Light mounts etc are often oversized on my handlebars so I think they are small but this one in particular was large. I had extra rubber strips from old bike lights and used them to attach, but it took 3 coats to tighten! It would be nice if they listed the size of the mount in the description and added a few extra rubber strips for those of us with smaller handlebars, but the computer itself works well and I'm enjoying my adjustments.

Pros
  • Few Competitors
Cons
