Performance
Strengths:
good looking, large text
Weaknesses:
bulky unit and bulky mount. doesn't work more than about 50cm.
Similar Products Used:
Cateye Micro- great unit
Bottom Line:
This is for a basic Mavic Wintech wireless computer w/ optional cadence. It's on sale cheap but it doesn't work well with mountain bike with 5' of travel. I mounted it as close as possible but it won't pick up signal just an inch short! Very dispointed, but I probably won'y like it anyway since the unit is so big that can easily damaged in a crash. Glad I return it and get a Cateye Micro which works great!

Strengths:
easy to install and calibrate
Weaknesses:
after a few rides the computer stopped working. i installed two new batters and re-calibrated. it is unpredictable, it stops working on just about every ride. this is the 2nd one i have owned. a couple of weeks ago i purchased a wire computer, but i could not make myself install it. but within the last two weeks, i've had so much trouble with the mavic, i am going to install the other computer. i wish i knew how to solve this problem. it's a nice looking and easy to install computer.
Bottom Line:
i don't think i will be purchasing this computer again. it stops unpredictably.
