I always liked traditional wired or wireless computers because they rarely died and provided all I really need to know; distance, time of day, average speed and the all important odometer.
HOWEVER, I regularly ride 4 bikes and one tandem, some with alternating sets of tires that all require unique calibration settings. After 20 years of endless calibration each time I changed tires or the batteries died, I had it and bought a Garmin Edge 200. It's no longer made but similar models are a relatively affordable way to tally mileage from multiple bikes without fuss. When I mountain bike, I occasionally scrap a day's log because the tree canopy interrupts the GPS signal but other than that, for 4 years, it's been an otherwise champion of reliability for the price paid. I personally can't stomach anything much above a hundred dollars for computing a bike ride. But I understand the desire for cutting edge technology including Wahoo models that display texts. Once a year that would be helpful... : ) Sean in Eden Prairie, MN On Thursday, August 24, 2017 at 4:44:03 PM UTC-5, lum gim fong wrote: > > Next in the series ( > https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/rbw-owners-bunch/what$20do$20rivendell$20riders%7Csort:relevance > ): > > What do you all use for gps units on your bikes? > > I am looking for minimal features: > > total distance > trip distance > climbing feet > > > That is all I need.
