Can't see ebay in work but as far as cheap ones go, my Lidl one that I bought a few years ago has been faultless and accurate. I've compared the distance measured on that with the Nokia Sports tracker and manually drawing the maps on Bikely and the distances are pretty damn accurate. I'd therefore assume the speeds etc are accurate too.

I've had a 2.99 lidl one, and a 3.99 halfords one and they've both been absolutely faultless. Replaced them with a slightly more expensive Garmin 705.

I'd steer clear of any cheap wireless ones though.

Can't get to either of those links in work, but I've got a cheap wireless one from Tchibo (sp). It's been faultless apart from the screen appearing completely black when wearing my (polarised) sunglasses 😆
