Just bought a Bikemate Wireless computer with heartrate monitor today from Aldi for £12.99!!! even if they are tempramental it's still a bargain and a half if you ask me!!
I may change my tune after I've been using it for a bit though by the sounds of things!
I've had one of these for a couple of years and it has been absolutely spot on for mileage.
I've just changed bikes and I now have one with wheels that are '700's, how does that translate on the Bikemate please. I know it says WS (wheel size) but it defaults to 2155 so not sure how it relates exactly. You can change the first digit to 1 or 2 only but the rest go through all the numbers.
The first digit is ok - you won't be going any higher than 2
If your tyre is listed in the chart (or it's ETRTO - located on the sidewall) you can enter that figure. If not then, IME, follow step B:
Rotate wheel so valve is at the bottom Place a mark on the ground Roll forward in a straight line for one rotation, until the valve is at the bottom again Put a mark on the ground
Measure the distance between the two and you'll have your wheelsize in millimetres for km/h setting. If you want to record in mph the computer should automatically recalculate the figure, if not divide the measurement by 1.609 and enter the resulting number, ie 2155 ÷ 1.609 = 1339
