Pros:
Features and Functions.
Pretty easy install and operation.
Easy to read display.
Straight forward, simple.
Can set 2 tire sizes down to the millimeter - or you can you use the scale on the paper that it comes with if you dont want to measure your exact tire circumference.
Price - $15
Cons:
Set screw and/or threads on magnet strip easily if tightened to much. I can see it coming lose and falling off. Already thinking of magnet replacement - anyone try wraping part of a flexible frig magnet tight around a spoke? I bet it works.
Worst thing: Computer resets itself too easily if magnet and sensor are close together while your still or putting bike away or, just like a minute ago, while I was fine tuning the front brakes.
Everything goes to zero. You have to reprogram tire size(s), time, Odometer goes to zero. etc.
Time Used:
Less Than A Month
Comments:
You get what you pay for, Johnny.
I'd like to say I love it.
But only like it mainly cause of price and basic functionality. Now i know what to look out for if i decide to buy something higher on the price scale.
Havent had it in bad wheather - yet.
Only had it a couple weeks mainly going to work and back.
Consistant distance recordings.
Be mindlful magnet and sensor proximity when storing etc.
Oh yeah. Directions say Stop Watch is a function. Doesn't come up on mine. Not worth the hassle of returning it.
