from Waterford MI USA Date Reviewed: January 14, 2004 Strengths: Absolutely bulletproof in 7 years of use. Been through numerous rain showers, washing machine 3 times and tons of gritty off road abuse with no problems. Still working like a charm and it's only used 3 batteries too. Has cadence and all needed high-end features. Weaknesses: The only weakness is that after riding in enough rain it will start going wacky. It's the interface between the computer and the mount. When water gets in there it doesn't work so good. Wrapping computer and mount in plastic bag with rubber bands will prevent this problem. Water NEVER gets in the computer itself. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $36.00 Purchased At: LBS Similar Products Used: Specialized, Cateye computers. Bike Setup: XC

from Reno, NV Date Reviewed: July 12, 2002 Strengths: Good functionality for the price (cadence). Easy to use. Computer is very tight on the mount (won't fall off). Weaknesses: The Set button has to be pushed with a pen or something. The zip ties are too small for even moderately fat tubes. The zip tie installation looks kind of chinsy.
