hi this is the chips from single track
0:01
magazine and I'm here today with one of
0:04
my choices for my 2024 editor Choice
0:08
Awards this is the Hammerhead carry 3
0:21
computer chosen it for a number of
0:23
reasons I've had the previous version
0:25
that cared 2 for a year and really liked
0:28
it there were some things that could
0:30
have been improved which they have in
0:32
this new version the buttons are click
0:35
here more tactile easier to use with
0:37
four finger gloves that mountain bikers
0:39
tend to wear the screen is still really
0:41
great it's adjustable brightness it's
0:43
touch sensitive you can page through you
0:46
can also do the same thing with the
0:47
buttons on the side so whichever way you
0:50
like to use a computer it it kind of
0:52
works very well one thing I do really
0:54
like about it is the aspect of profiles
0:58
you can have a different profile when
1:00
you fire up the computer you uh you're
1:02
asked to pick a profile and you can have
1:05
different settings for each different
1:07
profile so if you're on your town bike
1:09
and you just want to know how far you've
1:11
ridden and what time sunsets then you
1:14
can just have a screen that has those
1:16
two things on it if you are out on a
1:18
road bike and you want heart monitor
1:22
power meter a lapse time lap time all
1:26
those things you can have that on the
1:28
screen and then you can flict through to
1:30
the map screen and also have your power
1:32
also displayed on there so if you're an
1:35
ultra racer or whatever you can do that
1:37
and if you're just out on your mountain
1:39
bike uh for a trail ride uh you can have
1:42
whatever screens you want you could have
1:44
distance and altitude and amount of time
1:48
uh spent climbing all those kind of
1:50
things so those are are really handy
1:53
because not everyone wants a bleepy
1:56
point BYO navigation thing when they're
1:59
on on the stand bite or maybe they do
2:01
and they want uh the quiet version on
2:05
their racing screens or what have you so
2:08
that's really good I also really like
2:10
how easy it is to get routes on here to
2:13
follow I can log on to my Hammerhead
2:17
account free accounts on online on my
2:19
computer and basically Harvest either
2:22
GPX files or I can go to a friend's stra
2:26
page just get the URL from that stra
2:28
page and post it into the Hammerhead and
2:31
it will next time we boot this up on
2:34
Wi-Fi it'll appear so it's really really
2:37
good if you like following routes you
2:39
can also download a load of maps uh by
2:42
region so if you if you're on holiday to
2:45
Italy you can download just a bit of
2:48
Italy that you're in and it will have
2:51
really really good mapping with all the
2:53
trails all the piles all the roads
2:55
really good battery life is excellent uh
2:58
it comes with its own phone mount but
3:00
it's also got a Garmin Mount and I
3:04
really like it so if you can have a
3:06
computer on your on new bars give it a
