Where To Buy

Jenson USA






Submitted by xc hardtail RP a Weekend Warrior from Manila, Philippines
Date Reviewed: April 27, 2009
Favorite Trail:Sta. Rosa
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $11.00
Purchased At:Paulina's
Strengths:simple to use with 1 button, large display, calorie counter
Weaknesses:won't work when raining, calorie counter seems not that accurate
Bike Setup:stock 2008 Jamis Trail 3.0 disc
Bottom Line:This is an affordable bike computer with wire. Since I bike to exercise the calorie counter helps, although I believe I have burned more calories than what is shown on the display. Like what the previous poster mentioned, the unit does not work when wet. To remedy it I use a small zip lock bag to "water proof" it.
