My old Cateye Cordless 2 gave up the ghost a while ago, this was easy to change from bike to bike as the sensor and clamp were bolt-up type, everything seems to be zip-tied on now which means lots of faffing about with zip-ties or getting another, or 2, sensor and mount kits - expensive and more batteries to replace. I have about 3 bikes I use regularly so would like to swap from bike to bike easily, what's out there, anything??

Ta 🙂

Most computers can hold 2 wheel sizes now, just need to buy an extra fitting kit.

Garmin Edge. You don't need a sensor as the GPS will work out your speed etc. They (305 and 705 anyway) come with two bar mounts and you can buy extra.

blackburn delphi cheap a cipss about 13.75 from parker international a spare mount is about 10 and they do a nice one that sits under t stem top cap and along the stem. the one i used is wired though i think a more expensive version is wireless.

or a knog one where you can uclip the comp and sensor mount vry easily would just need a spare magnet

I've got a Sigma (last forever, my previous Sigma was well over 5yrs old when I lost it) THerefore have two brackets so no probs swapping around. They will do two tyre sizes but mine are the same size anyway.
