I have just bought the said item, and am really pleased with it - does loasda cool stuff and surprisingly, it works! And for £20, it is amazing.

BUT does anyone know how to reset the trip distance and timer, without resetting the whole thing and losing all the settings?

thanks.

    Do you mean at the a start of a trip/week where you want to know how far etc then SET+MODE but that will clear pulse range, altitude, temp etc. With the computers I've had in the past there has been no way of clearing only one piece of recorded date, you've had to reset the lot.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    I thought the Lidl computers were £5. They were when I bought two that I haven't got round to fitting yet, back in the spring.

    I'd expect a £20 one from there to have GPS and map display capabilities!
  • thanks redvee! just what I wanted.

    lol - it's got an altometer, thermometer with min/max readings, average&max. speed, time, distance, odometer, calorie consumption and fat burned, heart/pulse meter and the option to have 2 different size sets of tyres!

    and it's wireless, all for £20!

    +3 year warranty.

    a real bargain!

    and it also tells you what your current speed is. :lol:

    Sounds really good. Careful you don't crash while trying to look at your speed on the downhills though!
