![]() That feature was on my previous Giant computer and I miss it. The one short coming as others have mentioned is there is not option to have it continually rotate between the stats. I didn't really have a desire for CO2 offset or calorie burn, so those are wasted button presses. This one is designed for only one bike, which was a plus for me. The other cateye computer on my mountain bike had the option for multiple tire sizes/bikes, but found it hard to remember the button press sequence to change between them. I wanted something that would last, and had all the basic stats covered (distance, odometer, average speed, max speed and current speed). ![]() This replaced a very old Giant bike computer on my road bike. For a budget computer, it's hard to beat. Overall - this computer has a lot of nice features and is quite robust and comparable to it's Velo 7/9 counterparts with the only real difference being the heavier duty sensor wire. For instance, with a 29x2.35" tire the computer underestimates distance and speed by about 10-15% when using the 700c preset. If you aren't specifically worried about the accuracy of much beyond just your real moving time, then using the ball-park pre-set values will get the job done. Tire Size - Because bikes have forever had slightly different values than what is printed on the sidewall of the tire, if you're going to be relying on this computer to accurately tell you velocity and distance traveled, it will require some leg work to get it right, but it works quite well afterwards. This computer is adequate to give you some ball-park estimates of what you've been up to on a trail ride if you take the time to set it up using the actual tire circumference instead of the baked in automatic values. Overall, this is a great little computer for the price and for the features it has.
