Cateye Strada Slimline Head Unit and Sensor

This is actually a replacement unit for the last one which was registering 0mph on a regular basis. I've noticed this one is doing the same and having looked on the internet concluded that this seems common with Cateye computers. As the sensor is so slim and sits flush on the inside of the fork, the only place I can get the magnet within 5mm of it is down at the bottom of the fork. This is about 58cm away from the main unit - just 2cm short of the maximum distance between main unit and sensor. I'll persevere with it for now and see what happens. I may have to reset it all and start again but even that may not make any difference. All in all I'm not impressed with this unit despite the slim design and increased screen size which is supposed to make it more attractive to buy than the previous version.

If you are looking for a simple light weight wireless cycle computer, then this is a great choice. Better value on Tredz than Wiggle or CRC. Note that this version is for road bikes, there is a slightly different sensor for the MB version.

I've had a couple of issues with this unit since last Xmas. First it kept showing 0mph as I was cycling at around 15mph on a regular basis. I've since got the sensor as close as I can to the magnet and all seems ok. Last week I turned up to the start of a club ride and noticed it was showing 'Unit' as if I had pressed the menu button to set the mph/kph settings. Not experienced this with any other Cateye computer. My brother can't get his working at all despite the sensor and magnet almost touching. Not confident it will register the miles accurately and that's all I really want.

My wife has this neat little computer on two of her bikes and loves them. The second one has just been replaced after about 6 months when the screen went blank, came back on again, then wouldn't allow itself to be reset. The first one is still working perfectly after about 2 years. The only slight niggle she has is that the unit is a little tricky to get off the mount, otherwise it's to be recommended.

excellent product works really well after initial set up plus a great price and prompt delivery

Great little bit of kit, bought as a replacement for an old cat eye one, which got scratched. I use it as a sanity check against my GPS device as I know the mileage, etc is more or less spot on. Fits neatly on stem and is inobstrusive. Easy to read and reset. Not that difficult to set up once you get the hang of how to do it. Good basic computer.

Just bought this and is my first computer for my new road bike! Works really well providing the time, speed, average speed and distance biked in total and on the current ride. It's a bit tricky to change the time on it but you can find the instructions on the internet which really helps. Was easy to fit and an ideal unit for what I need!

once set up works a treat, but just need to be careful as over pressing button can reset the unit!!

A great cycle computer that meets all my needs. Nice and small and slim but with a clear display. Easy to set up and easy to use whilst on the move. Another great product from cateye, I would definitely recommend.

Cheapest price from Tredz, this great little slimline computer sits nicely on the bike stem. Easy to fit and accurately gives you all the information you could possible need on every trip
