Does anyone have knowledge of a wireless computer with a larger display than a postage stamp? I went into to Bridgtown Cycles to buy a Strada Double and was amazed anyone could read the bloody thing. I'm not Mr Magoo but I do need 1.5 - 2.0 reading glasses and find the v small display units are a tadge on the wee side.
Any idea's would be greatly appreciated.

I've got a VDO wireless computer. Can't remember the model number though but the display on it is pretty large and really easy to read.
No problems with reliability or interference either.

If you get a couple of pairs of these you can use any computer you like, they have a little section of reading glasses at the bottom:

Cycle computers are best chosen by function / reliability I think rather than searching for large displays. I use both of the above according to weather and they are brilliant - and very cheap. Lens quality is excellent - no eye strain. HelmetHead has delivered twice reliably to me (and to a friend) even though it is from the USA.0 -
