    I have Cateye TomoXC (wired) and I bought 2 years ago for 15pounds.
    So far it served me well.
    It has:
    - Curent speed
    - Max speed
    - Total distance
    - Trip distance
    - Elapsed time
    - Average speed
    - 12h Clock.
    And I can choose km/h or mph.

    Above list is about all you need,


    until you decide measuring your heartrate and cadence is necessary :lol:


    Wired work fine unless you ride through lots of undergrowth, overhanging foliage, or have a tendancy to fall off.

    and on the wireless side, I've never noticed it lose connection. After all, it's only going a few inches.
