    About Cycle Computers
    Cycle computers help you make the most of your time on the bike and are a great training tool, they have many functions including speed, distance, maximum speed, average speed and some even feature cadence (pedal revolutions). Trying to keep your average speed a bit higher or finish a familiar route in a new record time will give you the inspiration needed to push harder, get fitter and achieve that goal. If you commute on the same route every day, a computer injects a bit of interest. Cordless computers are easier to fit and look neater on the bike, meaning no messy cables to try and tidy up. If you're serious about improving your fitness, a computer with a cadence function will really help and these often read from the rear wheel, allowing them to be used with a turbo trainer.

    About the Cateye brand
    Cateye is the leading manufacturer of cycle computers, bike lights and reflectors. In 1964, Cateye became the first company to create a flashing lamp for bicycles. Cateye invented the first battery headlamp in 1982, and the very first bicycle headlamp using white LEDs in 2001. Cat Eye is a true leader in lens and reflector technology; Cateye's Opticube lens and reflectors allow them to make one of the brightest and most efficient LED headlights in the world.

    Since it's cadence compatible, I'm assuming there's a good enough wireless range to have the speed sensor on the back wheel?

    Ya, I had the speed sensor on the back wheel and the cadence sensor on the crank! Worked great for me, still works perfect. Bit of dirt on it but its working 100%

    Thanks Deedsie.

    Only bought a Garmin Cadence sensor last week, so trying to decide whether to go with yours or bite the bullet and get a 500 or something.

    I had this and a garmin gps watch... Best of both worlds? And you could use the watch for running, swimming etc. I think the 500 is a bit limited in that it can only be used for cycling! This is obviously just my opinion. I could be completely wrong in that so don't want you to think I am trying to mislead you to help me sell the cateye. That is just my genuine opinion!

    Thanks for your input.

    I only do cycling though, so a watch would be wasted on me.

    I have been a bit indecisive about this but I have decided now 100% to try move this on. It works perfectly, it's currently on my bike, had it out this morning and its readings were bang on with my gps watch. Hence my indecisevness to sell it on. The cadence readings are great to see on this, no wires to worry about. Comes with all the instructions, box, speed/cadence magnets etc

    I also have a cycling tool kit for sale here, could do a deal if anyone bought both together!
