This product's description is entirely correct but I made the mistake of assuming it would have several features it lacks. Just in case anyone else is expecting the same I thought I'd write a review.- It doesn't have a stopwatch function, it does record distance and speed but has no way of tracking how long you've been pedalling. Also means no average speed etc output.- The cable is only long enough for the sensor to be attached to the front wheel, so if you're planning on using it with a turbo trainer where the front wheel won't rotate then you need to look elsewhere.Having said that it does the job of a basic cycle computer very well - tells you current speed and total distance.

A great little computer with all the basics on it. a good starter model for a leisure riderat a fair price if you think that you need more bells and whistles go for a higher spec at a much higher pricea good basic computer for the leisure cyclist at a fair price, but if you think that you need more bells and whistles go for a higher spec at a much higher price.It fits easily and calibrated ok it gives me 9.99 miles for a ride logged by the car as 10milesand thats good enough for me !

very prompt delivery, fitted swiftly as the rain was slowing, easy read display without glasses, when clocking 30.2mph, say's he !..In clock mode hold button for 2 sec - sleep mode.in Mx speed mode hold for 2 sec - resets max time and distance, odometer not reset, so you keep counting the miles for the week/month.to reset everything / odometer time etc hold set key on back and press mode button for 2 sec. then reset time and your away.

This is a well made product, easy to fit and works very well. Like other reviewers, I must also emphasize the need to read about it carefully prior to purchase. There is no average speed or journey time. It does tell you time, current speed, trip distance and total distance in either miles or kilometres. One criticism is that the face does reflect the light and so getting the angle right so you can read the display is important.

I needed a mini-cycle computer to keep track of my speed and distance, at a glance, rather than having to refer to my GPS device.This was a brand I had heard of, was a decent price so I ordered. It arrived a couple of days later and within ten minutes I had fitted it to my bike and set it up following the very simple instructions.It tracks basic info and is simple to use and set up, so I would recommend to anyone.

Good delivery, however, this unit is a 'wire unit' not 'wireless' could be my mistake and I now think the price would reflect this. I contacted the supplier regards to bar fittings and batteries, prior to ordering, got a very quick response, should in 'hind sight' asked the question on wiring. All this apart good Cateye quality and fittings, use it on my training bike on the rollers and works great.

I bought this for my wife so she can see how she is doing when out on one of her rides so she knows how far she had been and keep an eye on the time whilst she is out.It’s very user friendly for those that just want something that is no hassle to use and got more buttons and functions than a iPhone.Very easy to fit and set up.If I change mine I’d happily replace it with his unit.

Computer works fine, easy to fit, and instructions easy to follow once you find the right part of the pageWould have liked more information before I bought it. I didn't know if it was wireless or not, it wasn't. Also it doesn't show average speed at the end of a trip, I would have liked this function. Maybe I just didn't read the description properly

The cat's eye was very easy to fit and splendid in the way that it shows speed, distance, average speed etc.Just be careful that the piece of equipment is well clicked in - I did not and when I pressed the mode button to get a different reading the monitor shot off and a car ran over it before I could retrieve it!!!

Very simple to use (once set up), very easy to fit to your bike, and battery lasts (3 years and still going so far - used for about 5hrs per week). Extremely good value.I've looked at the fancier models but they are over-complicated and contain mostly functions that nobody really needs, like calorie counters.

with out the need for fancy gps devices which you dont need, this speedo gives all the basic requirments which are diplayed clearly. the one button opperationg system is easy to use as well. i especially like the max speed recorder which is great for seeing how fast you just powered down a hill!

Excellent piece of kit for the money, I bought two of these, Only problem I had was that my computer stopped working due to the magnet going out of position on my front wheel, it was a simple fix (might have been better if they had designed the magnet to sit in a central position on the spoke)

Very good buy. Brought another type which was wireless. It did not work. But this one has a wire and so very easy to set up. Just one touch button to start it once you have set it up. Instructions are good but there is also an instruction video on youtube. Very clear to see the readout.

You know what it is, you know how it works, just want I wanted for my bike, basic functions are all I needed. This has them. Easy to fit and use. I can't ask for more. A little sunny update_ works perfectly ,switched it to my 700cc, excellent working order.
