Editorial Review
The folks at Schwinn obviously know a thing or two about bike accessories and this 12-function instrument should come in handy for anyone looking to use their biking time for something other than a pleasant pedal around the neighborhood. Attach it to your bike or hold it on the attached cord and get information on your speed, average speed, maximum speed, trip distance, odometer readings, total distance, ride time, and more. Bearing in mind that it's hard to push a lot of buttons while biking, the device features a single button control panel, allowing you to get the right information while still staying upright on the bike. --Charlie Williams

This little computer is accurate, reliable and easy to use.The display shows your speed in large letters and has a selectable smaller readout for whatever function you choose. I wind up having it show speed and time all the time. If you're satisfied with a simple, cheap speedometer and only occasionally use the other functions, this is the one. Here are some hints that fairly eliminate most of the small complaints. 1. Install the magnet close to the wheel's hub and adjust it (twist the sensor in) so that the magnet passes as close as possible without touching. 2. Remove the computer when the bike is not in use. It has a quick release; store it inside or in your pocket and the battery will last. 3. Leaving it outside in direct sunlight may cause a dark splotch on the screen. This is normal for led displays, and goes away in a few seconds. Also see...

Having never installed one before, I just took my time & had some extra zip ties ready...just in case. The only tool you'll need is something to trim the ends off the zip ties when you're done. I like the "scan" mode which flips thru max speed, avg. speed, distance, total time, etc. On the down side, I bought another for my son's bike. It either had a bad sensor or a broken wire from the sensor to the unit. It never did work. I took it back for a refund. For $10 - what do you expect? You may get one that works fine - you may not. |
