5 out of 5 stars great price, works great   September 21, 2008
1/2 the price of local stores on Amazon. works great. It helps me know the time so I can pedal faster so I'm not late.... & then it tells me just how fast I'm going as I contemplate how I should have left a few minutes earlier, so I could enjoy the ride more. If I wanted to, I could also figure out the fat I'm losing by the calories, I suppose, but I've never been one to count those things... too many better things to be concerned with. I say, just look at your gut.... it will tell u if u already used the fuel you ate yesterday or not. I used this computer for a while now & had no problems. My only complaint is the supposed "backlight"... it is more like a flash of light that displays when u push a button that also sets other features if u are not careful


4 out of 5 stars Good Computer - Not So Good Documentation   September 18, 2008
Below is my original review written after a short period of ownership. After several more weeks of toying with the computer and figuring out how it works, I have to say it is well worth your money. It offers most everything you could want and then some. Only if you were training would you need more functions. You can use the computer to see how fast, both current and average speed, how far, how much time was spent and how many calories you've burned on your ride. All of which are resettable for your next ride. While at the same time it keeps a running total of how far you've ridden since installing the meter as well as keeping track of the maximum speed you've reached. Great tool and highly recommended even if all you want to know is the time of day.
I've owned my Scwinn 17 function bike computer for a week or so now. So far the computer has worked flawlessly to bring me details of my rides. It shows tons of info, some most people want to see and a few details the average person won't need. Setting this computer up was probably a bit harder than opening the bubble package, although I don't recall the manual being laid out to facilitate easy mounting. The instructions are scattered and less than perfect but if you have a decent mechanical mind you should be able to figure it out in short order. Once it was mounted learning how to use it and program it was another story. Programming calls for you to measure the tires diameter then multiply that by 3.1416 to obtain the wheels circumference. Fun thing being, the measurement has to be in metrics (millimeters). My 26" tire measured 665mm across the center resulting in a 2089mm circumference. I'm still dabbling in learning how to use the computer and I find I want it to do things I don't think it can do. For instance, after each ride it will show how far you have ridden per the odometer. The odometer can be reset to zero after each ride but I have yet to figure out how to reset the ride "time". I'd love to know info like, I rode 10 miles and it took 40 minutes. But so far my time keeps compounding adding yesterday's ride to todays ride. Not a big deal. Overall I'd say this is a very good bike computer and despite the instructions being a little less than perfect, I would not hesitate to buy another or hesistate to suggest that you buy one either. Good computer.



5 out of 5 stars Exceptional!!!   September 17, 2008
Bought this product this summer and it works great.

It is easy to install, comes with instructions. It gives the speed accurately. One of the best thing, is that the monitor can be removed from the handlebar anytime. That's nice if you park your bike outside.

I would recommend everyone to by it.



4 out of 5 stars Easy to install   September 15, 2008
Took me about 15 minutes to install. Works well. Get extra cable ties.


5 out of 5 stars Best Value I ever bought   September 9, 2008
It looks and works great. Easy to use, good functionality, good display size and visibility in all conditions, accurate and great companion. Have not had any problems with it.

I was skeptical due to the low price but this computer has been solid. Best value product I ever bought.
