Venturing over to the dark-side for this one as I am guessing you guys may well be of more help than the MTB forum for this one.
Currently recovering from reconstructive surgery on my ACL and LCL. I've been given the all-clear to start with the turbo now, but I'd like to add some structure to my workouts to get a more effective recovery. The idea is to come back to the bike fitter than when I went out.
What I'm after is a cycle computer for the turbo trainer (Jetblack M1 Mag Pro). Don't need anything fancy like HR monitors or cadence sensors, just a basic time/ distance/ speed one will be fine. Obviously, there is loads of choice out there for this. However I would like the ability to upload my logs to the computer when I'm done so I can keep track and identify weak areas. Something I can use to upload to Endomondo would be splendid.
I'm having REAL trouble finding anything that fits that brief for under about £100 though. Does such a thing exist?
Seems like it's pretty much an all-or-nothing kinda deal. Either go for the bells and whistles training partner sort of device, or stick with the regular old non-uploadable gubbins.
Can anyone find me a middle-ground for about £50 or less or is it going to be a 2nd hand garmin of some kind?
