I have been given £30 of vouchers from work colleagues for Halfords.

I am keen to use these on a bike computer, but the only ones which seem to offer a good range of functions are the Boardman ones.

what experience to folks on here have of either the altimeter or cadence one - which one is best for the money, or is one of the cheaper ones better by design but less because it doesnt have the Boardman connection?

    I had a cadence one couldn't get it working for more than 10 mins at a time, I read some reviews and most have been poor. The visibility on the cadence one is poor too. I gave up, took it back and bought a cateye strada.

    You'd be better off with one of the cheaper wired ones if you want a comp, otherwise there's some half decent jerseys or stock up on tubes :D

    The Muc-off bike cleaning kit is around £30 I reckon, good investment if you don't already have one.

    Check out Tesco for cheap computers,I bought the cadence one and it's spot-on.
