Hi All,
For fitness & interest I'd like to get a bike computer. I do not want to use an application on my Torch though because the likes of Endemondo etc. are unreliable.
I think that I need a computer that is wireless, has altitude, easy to mount, tough, good looking, backlit & waterproof.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance. 😉
Although not backlit, for fitness / training I,ve been using a forerunner 305 this year as it was the cheapest decent Garmin, easy enough to mount and works ok & you can access Garmin connect. Probably not up to navigating from, if that is a requirment for you.
@kilo: Thanks for the advice - I do not need to navigate though. I just 'need' the requirements previously listed, don't think I missed anything but I may be swayed by the unknown... 😉
The 305 isn't a navigational thing
You could use it for that if you were stuck though
Perfect for your requirements - and, IIRC is indeed backlit
besides backlit and water proof (ish) the VDO 1.0+ is very good and fits the bill. I have two. One broke recently as i washed my bike upside down with it on, then had to dry it out in the airing cupboard for 2 days. 😀 it now works.
I should add that the altitude thing is excellent, and very very accurate
