Review on ๐Ÿšด RISEPRO Wireless Bike Computer, Waterproof Bicycle Speedometer Odometer with Backlight, Multi-function 4 Line Display - Model YT-813 by Dustin Woodrow

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good cycle computer at a reasonable price

I used my own heavy duty black zip ties like the others. I want to make sure the computer stays installed and the sensor engages when driving over rough terrain. The bike computer is pretty good in its capabilities. It doesn't have a cadence, but it does have RPMs that can be used to set and maintain a specific tempo. Setup is a bit tricky as you toggle between different settings, and if you accidentally hit the forward button earlier than you should, you'll have to start with the first setting and cycle through each a second time. No deal breaker. Mounting the pickup and magnet was easy, and the distance between them is greater than competing devices in this price range. I would have given 5 stars if I didn't have to use my own zip ties. In terms of accuracy, I haven't ridden alongside a car or other motorcyclist to see if the speed matches the circle I entered. TIP: I have Specialized Nimbus Sport, 650B x 2.3" tires, so to determine the circumference I put black tape on the outside circumference of the tire and then rolled the bike forward until the ends of the tape met. I took the tape off the tire and measured in inches (if you can't measure in metric units) then used the inch to millimeter website to determine the exact millimeters to enter into the unit of measure I would recommend this device if You want the features of an affordable bike computer.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Somewhat serviceable
