Cycling computer, works sweet...

[Divy]

i tried one too once but on my watercooled pocket bike
it didnt work cause the magneto was causing interferance an was giving me crazy readings

i havnt tried on my pitbike cause i thought it would do the same thing but yours seems to be working good so i might buy one an give it ago

Yeh i was keen to do this ,so i though i would look around on ebay for a waterproof cycling computer and there only like $20 with shipping however they are not wireless :
eBay Australia: BIKE CYCLING SPEEDOMETER BICYCLE COMPUTER ODOMETER NEW (item 260137494315, end time 11-Jul-07 18:51:00 AEST)

Just wondering whether these would work?

Dude, do yourself and your local scene a favour and go into your local bike shop, like "Drift" in Newcastle and just buy one from there and be done with it! That thing off of ebay is pure ****. You dont have to buy everything off of ebay! In fact most things are better not purchased from ebay... You would get a sweet little wired version for about $30 from a bike shop and it wouldnt be ebay ****.

oi man , rarley do i buy any **** off ebay as like you said most of it is pure **** however i don't need a cycle computer that will allow me to ride the tour de france that will cost me 60 dollars.I would support "drift" however if they have any chance in making a sale they will need to lower the sale prices rather than ripping of the public with there 20% above recomended retail prices no having a go at you or the drift blokes as your probally both top notch fellas right? Im all for the local scence too ,the reason why i said "would that cycle computer be ok" is due to the fact that im about to fork out money for a new donk and don't have all the money in the world to spend on a computer that sticks on to your handle bars and tells you wheather your wearing the wrong coloured lycra today? enough of me rambling on ,perphaps I may buy that $30 unit but from drift is probally sold for $50 ,see my point man? cheers

 

[captain dust]

All good mate, im not having a shot at you! I dont need the spandex option on my computer as i aint going nowhere near that gear! Hahahahah... Drift was just a suggestion mate, all good hey!

 

[unit_mx]

all good lol ,you seem to know your speedo's lol i just checked drifts site and there $35 (non wireless) lol ,whats better pro-cycling wireless pace-wr model or a cateye Wireless CC-MC100W at the same price?it sucks cause both don't have A lycra gauge on em .because i have no friggin idea i ride 20s

 

[unit_mx]

i said lol 3 times within 21 words then ...how depressing also i don't know whether to buy a c.di rev box or a cycling computer ,what realy would provide more fun?

 

[pegleg]

Hadley's should have a decent one for a bit less than that.

 

[captain dust]

Hahahah, i certainly know my spandex and speedos very well as i spend all day flogging them off to people! Hahah, Cateye stuff is pretty expensive and doesnt work that well really for what you pay for it. You really need a wireless one if you have USD forks though, which is pretty much going to be the case i would assume! It is a cool little gadget to have on their though. If one comes out with a spandex gauge ill let you know...

Hahahah this is the first time I checked this thread as I always thought it was too do with computers. I tried connecting one of these to my old cr80 about 5 years ago but I could never get the magnet thing to fit the spokes. Hopefully I never threw the thing out cause I now want to put it on my mini.
