Finally my cheapo Lidl computer has finally given up the ghost!

Can anyone recommend a model?
I thought cadence would be handy as well as heart rate or is this not necessary??


Cheers, Galty.

    All three you'll want the Wintech from Mavic. Pricey but looks the part and works as well.

    Check out the Cateye site - Apparently they're just about to launch a new technology wireless computer - One with speed/cadence, one with speed/cadence/heart rate.
    It may make for cheap offers on their older models.

    I recently bought a Sigma wireless computer for the MTB, and it's nowhere near as good as the Cateye in terms of usability and sensor/magnet gap and size.

    I went to the Cateye website. The new V3 looks great. I wonder how much it's going to cost. Anyone know?

    Cheap replacement from Sainsburys. Bought A Bi Tech wireless model for £5 last week. Does all the usual stuff, and includes average and max speed functions.
