Computer question

Okay I've read alot of posts: in the computer section on certain models to get and what not.. My question is, what brand makes a computer that will work on a 29er. And for any fellow 29er what do you guys use. Not looking for the top of the line just your basic computer. Prefer wireless. :???:

They ALL can be set for 29" tires (most will go up to at least a 40" diameter). You need to do a rollout for an accurate calibration. The tire size charts are not even correct for most 26" tires.

That said, I have switched to a Garmin Edge 305 GPS computer. Never needs to be calibrated for tire size.
Any computer will work on a 29er, you'll just need to calibrate it. (i.e. input circumference)

Can't help with a basic computer as haven't used one in a long time. I do use a Garmin 305 (GPS based) once in a while, but it's not basic.
