Question by thalesgirl: Bike computers?
Hi -
Looking to spend under $ 200 for a wireless bike computer. I have looked at a bunch, but I don’t know what brands are known to be better designed/more reliable.
Necessary features:
Odometer
Speedometer
Memory for past workouts
Might be cool, but not willing to break the bank for these:
GPS
Heart rate monitor/calories burned
Sync to PC
What’s out there that people like? What is useless? Any and all advice appreciated!!
Best answer:

There are 2 companies that I think might be able to help-Naviion ande Cyclops…

Check out the cyclocomputers on Nashbar.com. They always have something going on. I have always liked Cateye. They have been around forever. I still use the wired computer I got back in the early 80s. Nashbar has the Cateye CC-HR200DW (heart rate/wireless) on sale for $ 140, or if you want to splurge, the Garmin GPS is less than $ 200. I have a separate GPS unit I can use for other things besides biking, but it is nice to have a all-in-one unit. Just knowing the elevation is helpful. The things you list that are necessary to you, you can get for around $ 40+ (regular price) or $ 25+ (on sale). Good luck.
