I like the simplicity and low price. I have had no problems with reliability. Battery life is good. I've ridden centuries and large group rides in many locations in northern California and haven't had any problems with interference. This unit has everything I need, nothing I don't, it's cheap, reliable and easy to use. <br /> <br />I use more sophisticated units such as Cateye double and Polar on the indoor trainer when I want lots of data, but for road use, I found the Vetta is ideal.

Even with battery changes, realignment, it fails to record any speed or distance. Poor equipment. Rating: 1 / 5 after 15 miles it has malfunctioned.

No matter how much I spun my wheel or how close I put the sensors together, the computer wouldn't register anything. <br />I sent it back and got a wired computer, which works perfectly Rating: 1 / 5 Putting it on my bike was pretty easy but I couldn’t get the sensor to work.

I bought this one to replace the same model that I had for six years but I managed to smash it up pretty good on a rock . Even after that it still worked but the screen and mounting bracket were cracked. Not that flashy but for the price you can't beat it. Rating: 5 / 5 This model is easy to use and pretty accurate.

The unit's response time is slower than the old ones I had in the 90's. I should have bought another Cateye. That one lasted me a good five years on my old GT.
