    Cateye definetly. Mine is TomoXC bought for £15(wired) 2 years ago.
    It's a bit ugly but it does his job.
    - Curent speed
    - Max speed
    - Total distance
    - Trip distance
    - Average speed
    - Elapsed time
    - 12H clock
    That's all I need for now.
    There is also Cateye Velo 8 who is about £12 at my place.
    It has an extra function from the TomoXC and it's better looking:
    - Calorie Consumption

    Although the calorie cosumption function won't be much use at that price I should imagine, and, tbh, I don't think they are much use at all!!

    I won't recomend Velo 5 because doesn't have all
    the functions (elapsed time, average time-which I use it most times)
    of the Velo 8, and 5£ extra shouldn't be a problem.
