CYCPLUS GPS Bike Computer, Wireless Cycling Computer with Automatic Backlight, Bicycle Speedometer Odometer with Waterproof and Lager Battery, Provide Professional Data Analysis

CYCPLUS GPS Bike Computer, Wireless Cycling Computer with Automatic Backlight, Physically, this CYCPLUS GPS CYCLOMETER is 2 1/4" wide, 2 1/4" high, about 3/4" thick. the battery is not removable and is charged with a charging wire (included) from a USB power source. To use this is very easy, all you need to do is get used to the screens, which toggle when pressing the MODE (bottom) button. This Cyclometer has all the basic functions you would need. Speed, in KPH or MPH, (TOT) Total trip time, (ODO) Trip miles (TIME)Clock time, (DIST) Trip distance (RTM) CLOCK, (ALT) Altitude Reading spead has 3 choices Max Speed, / Current Speed, / Average Speed Now be warned, the user manual is ok. It is not clear on all points as the wording gets twisted. The set up is pretty easy AFTER you get by the CLOCK SETTING. The Cyclometer is set to a time zone (GMT), and you have to find your time zone by adding a number or a -number to adjust the time. Your Time Zone will be either a positive # if east of GMT or a negative number if west. Pacific standard time is -8 hours (west) of GMT. If you cycle through the various options knowing you need a minus number if west of GMT and a positive number if east It will take you a little time to get this one right. Once this is complete, the rest is easy. (some info for setting time borrowed from another review) The GPS took a couple minutes to find the satelites and start calculating speed. Once the initial start up is done, it will find the satelites faster next time you power up. The kph / MPH calculate a bit slow. It is possible to be racing down a road where you are picking up or dropping speed and the display will be off during the speed up or down time for a short amount of time. I only mention this as information, you may never notice this display action. For those in a race for several days and do not want to CLEAR the ride time or the trip miles, DO NOT POWER DOWN THE CYCLOMETER. Let the cyclometer time out and go to sleep MODE, by not touching it. it will go to sleep in about 10 minutes. When you want to CLEAR THE CYCLOMETER, after the ride, power the cyclometer down with the power button. Next time you power up, the numbers will have been reset to 0's.(ZEROS). The display back light will come on automatically, a good feature. The kph / MPH indication also has an arrow to the right for Speed Moving up and Speed Moving down (Up and Down). however they are very small and you may miss them when they indicate speed changes. You change screens by quick pressing the mode (bottom) button to cycle through the 3 screens. To change the MILES display from Max Speed, / Current Speed, / Average Speed, you need to quick press the "Speed" button. The "Speed button" is (a quick press) of the power button, to cycle through Max Speed / Current Speed / Average Speed. NOTE that if you LONG PRESS the Speed button, it reverts back to the POWER BUTTON and will shut down the Cyclometer. the next time you power up, the Trip Time and Trip Miles will be cleared to 0's (zeros). For use on a bicycle, this has very easy controls so you won't take your attention off of the race at hand. The buttons are medium sized, and you have to apply pressure a certain way to operate the switching on the buttons. That is the only oddity. This is a portable (wireless) GPS cyclometer and can be used from bike to bike, or in a car or truck to check speedometer accuracy or track vehicle miles. I've been using mine off and on for about 12 hours and the battery still has charge. As this is reliant on a satelite signal, going under trees, or in a tunnel where the sky is blocked, the GPS will track (or not) oddly until it gets a good signal from the satelites again. I Recommend this Cyclometer. It is one of the easiest to use cyclometers that I have used to this point. The fact that it is wireless GPS is even better. I do not know this seller and did not receive any money or product for my random review. 241001 0054

This is a great basic-function bike computer. It has a 53 mm (diagonally measured) LCD screen with easy to read speed, time, and distance. The speed button allows you to quickly toggle through current speed, average, and max, and a second button allows you to quickly toggle through TOT (total time riding), odometer, and altitude. So far I've used it on two rides (38 and 53 miles respectively). I compared it to Strava on these same rides, and it compares very favorably (within 1-2% of the same distance, ride time, and average speed). Unfortunately id doesn't sync to Strava, but if all you want is to know your current and ave speeds, how far you've gone, and your overall odometer, its a fantastic deal for the price. One kind of weird thing is that it starts out measuring distance in feet, then switches to miles once you've traveled 1.0 miles (but apparently that is the way a lot of these cheaper bike computers measure distance). One thing I really love is how quickly it picks up a stable GPS signal (WAY faster than the other bike computers I've own that are in this same price bracket). So far, the battery shows as fully powered, even though I've used it for over 5 hours already. Its supposed to get at least 10 hours per charge, and so far it looks like its going to. What I don't know is how long it will last until it dies (the other bike computers I've owned in this price bracket died at a little over one year (XOSS) and a little over two years (Camile). Both of those brands are either currently defunct, or appear to be on their way out. Even if all you get is one year out of the CYCPLUS, at its current price point ($34) its still a great deal. In my opinion, its a lot easier to use, and certainly a lot easier to read than the GARMIN Edge 130 which I tried a couple of years ago and returned because of how small it was and how non-intuitive it was to control. (I have now had a chance to test the battery life, and found that I was able to get at least 16 hours out of a single charge. I probably could have gotten the advertised 20 h, but didn't feel like it was worth the risk of having it die while I was on a ride. After 16 hours of ride time, the battery charge icon is showing about 25% power remaining....which would be about another 4 hours. So I could probably get a total of 19 hours out of a single charge if I really wanted to).

I've been looking for a wireless computer for my road bicycle and decided to give this inexpensive GPS based cycle computer a try. It's rechargeable via USB (no batteries to buy) and, since it runs off a GPS signal, there's no sensor to attach to the wheel nor any need to enter wheel circumference data to use it. It has all the basic functions you'd expect (speed, avg. speed, max. speed, ride time, ride distance, total distance and a clock). The included instructions are vague, which seems to be typical of Chinese made electronics these days, and it took a while to figure out some basic things, such as the fact that a "short press" of the buttons is about 1 second-anything less does nothing. Time setting by figuring out your time zone relative to GMT is a bit confusing as well, but I figured it out (still not sure how). After trying it out on several rides with the group I ride with on Sundays, here are my thoughts: Pros: Display is easy to read, even in bright light. Screen is glass and should be scratch resistant. No wheel sensor needed and no need to input data on wheel circumference, so transferring the unit across multiple bikes is easy. The universal mount allows easy detachment. The computer pick up a signal quickly, but you do want to turn it on a minute or so before starting the ride as it's not instantaneous. Operation is very simple once you figure out which of the two buttons does what. Cons: The unit is large and bulky, compared to a wired unit. It's about twice the size of my previous wired computer, and not very "streamlined." It's a square block. It's a LOT bigger than the ad makes it appear. I suppose this is necessary due to the onboard rechargeable battery and GPS chipset, but... Compared to the computers on the other bikes in the group I ride with, it consistently underestimates ride distance by several tenths of a mile. In all fairness, the manufacturer does state that the unit may lose signal in densely wooded areas. Unfortunately, a lot of the good riding roads around here are shaded by forests. It's pretty accurate, overall, but if absolute accuracy is important, you might want to consider something else.

This GPS bike computer works really well and is very easy to set up. The GPS connects quickly and tracks speed, distance, and routes accurately. The screen is clear and easy to read, even in sunlight. I like that it’s wireless and lightweight, and the battery life is solid for long rides. For the price, it offers great performance and all the essential features a cyclist needs. Highly recommended for both beginners and regular riders.

Got this for my electric golf cart to track speed and distance, works great! Extreme value for the money, better than a 150 dollar hand held!

Great gps bike computer that has a very clear display, is easy to set up, change to miles, and monitor speed, distance and time. You can also change speed from current to average and switch to the odometer. Illuminates at night. Had the CYCPLUS over 3 weeks and have not had to recharge yet from the initial charging via UBS. Easy to mount on handlebar. Highly recommended.

In some ways, I really like this inexpensive bike computer. It's well-built, has a great display, and a great price. Setup is easy. And the battery lasts a good amount of time. However, if you pedal in areas of trees or tall buildings, the Cycplus G1 won't accurately measure your speed or distance. Of course on the Amazon web page for the G1, it honestly confesses this: "Please note that the GPS may not provide stable data when you are in a forest or tunnel, as the speed measurement of this device is done by GPS." I experimented with it on three rides in Portland neighborhoods and parks on a bike that also had on its handlebars a Cateye Velo 7 Wired Bike Computer (more of an odometer really) and a Hammerhead Karoo 2. Here were the results: Ride 1 - Cateye and Karoo 2: 19.89 miles, Cycplus: 18.7 Ride 2 - Cateye and Karoo 2: 18 miles, Cycplus: 17.1 Ride 3 - Cateye and Karoo 2: 26.48 miles, Cycplus: 24.7 Ride 4 - See photos. This was a ride with lots of trees. Both the Cycplus and Karoo 2 use GPS for measuring miles, speed and altitude. The Cateye measures wheel revolutions to compute miles and speed. The Cateye does not measure altitude. When riding in areas with no trees, the speeds shown matched up pretty well, but as soon as you get into tree cover, the Cycplus jumps all over the place in speed and altitude readings. The Cateye and Karoo 2 were very close on speed at all times and the Karoo 2 accurately monitor altitudes--there is no jumping around in its readings. The obvious conclusion is that a $400 device (Karoo 2) has a much better antenna and connection with satellites than a $30 device (Cycplus). My advice: I'd recommend the Cycplus if a lot of your riding is in the open (great for Tucscon riding for example) or if distance covered isn't important to you. It does make an okay speedometer. And it is accurate on elevation when you are stopped. Plus, it's a handy clock, records ride time accurately, and does eliminate the wires used by a device like the Cateye. If you're looking for a way to inexpensively and accurately measure speed and distance, consider a wired or wireless speedometer/odometer like those Cateye makes.

This bike computer is very good with tracking how far you go but the speedometer part works pretty well but it is a little off sometimes, but besides that this is a good thing to buy

ロードバイクのメーターとして購入しましたが、当方が所持してる3輪バギーにも取付して使ってます！ 速度も正確で昼でも見やすく夜もバックライトで良く見えます。 強いて言えばやはりGPSなのでトンネルに入ると速度表示がゼロになります。 でもこの価格で更にGPSメーターなら文句なしです! その他の機能はよくわからないので設定してませんが当方速度が見れれば良いので大満足です♪

Works well. Stays in place, no vibrations over bumps. Setup is OK I needed to enter my time zone before it would work. Checked it with my car and is accurate. Recommended.

Easy setup, a great value for money, an honestly Insane buy for the price, The accuracy of the speed is just insane, the metrics are displayed perfectly and it doesn't take very long for the GPS to lock on, and all info and stats are just bang on. A great buy. Fits well on handlebars and has no issues whatsoever.

Amazing

Not sure why you would want altitude on a bicycle computer? If you're not firmly on the ground, you probably have more to worry about than your exact height above sea level ... Plus, I'm not sure how accurate it is: I apparently went into freefall from 500' to 40' in just a few seconds, while sitting on a bench 🤔 That said, I bought this somewhat hesitantly to replace an old wired (and wildly inaccurate) speedometer / odometer which recently fell off my bike somewhere. Being elderly, I was worried I wouldn't be able to set this up by myself, but in fact it was remarkably easy (partly luck, I think ...). And it picks up the satellite signal far better than my car's satnav does, too. It's great to have an accurate speed and distance; especially as I never remember to look at my watch both before AND after a ride. I'm even able to select / see the functions I want quite easily, much to my delight! However, this small electronic device has an easily scratched or damaged face, but doesn't come with any screen protector or storage case, which is daft. The mount is held on by elastic bands (4 supplied: 2 to use, and 2 spares when they snap), which never seem to hold things securely, and eventually stretch or snap, and lose your valuable equipment. I have already spent extra money on a storage case, and will need to fork out for a decent mount - so the price of this cycle computer is not such good value as it first appears. All in all, I'm happy with my purchase so far - I've bought a standard earphone case separately (see photos), as I don't want to be flinging this into my bag unprotected. MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT is - why does the computer insist on measuring the first almost TWO MILES in feet??? (9,999') I know it's just over a mile to one place I cycle to regularly, but I don't have the brain power to be doing complicated mental arithmetic while on the move (nor when later sitting down with a cuppa, for that matter). I only get a mile measurement on my way home. WHY ON EARTH ??? Maybe a few people actually need the feet measurement, but please make it possible to measure in miles from the start!!
