Any reccomendations for a cycle computer up to about £30?

Are the wireless ones any good?

Seems pretty good, it's wireless, records the same speeds and distances as my £200 Garmin Vista HCx and is only £ 25.Has an odoemter, trip distance, clock, average speed, max speed, current speed, time elapsed etc.

I had a couple of wired computers and one wireless one before it. The wired ones kept snapping on the cable unless you wrap them around a brake hose or something. The previous wireless one was form Halfords and was useless. The range on it was pathetic, couldn't get a stable signal form it all.

Sorry to butt into this topic but do any of you guys or girls know a computer with a Calorie counter on it.Finding it hard to seek one out for around 30 quid ................Cheers Tora

Calorie counters are a waste of time. They project an entirely inaccurate figure - there is no way to tell how many calories you body has burned from a cycle computer.

Don't bother counting whats going out, count whats going in, thats the best way

Even managed to use it for the full duration of my recent race at thetford and the figures it generated matched the result.

Cateye Micro wireless.

It's worth keeping your eyes peeled for the next bike wear sale at ALDI. I got a wireless cycle computer with heart rate monitor, temperature gauge and every other function under the sun for £12, it's worked faultlessly since June
