Have used these wired cyclometers for 30 years, and have the Velo 7 on two bikes for 2 years, only replacing my original because I dropped it in the garage. My original did not have a clock and automatic start/stop, and both of these features are great additions. I really don't need any additional functions, nor GPS as I ride bike ways in my area. I also do not need wireless, the small 1½ foot wire is easily secured to the fork with ties, and allows for a much smaller sending unit at he wheel, and uses one battery in the computer as opposed to two as the wireless models have. The single battery also lasts longer as there is no constant sending and receiving the wireless signal. For timing cadence, I simply watch my elapsed trip timer and count my pedal strokes for 10 seconds, then multiply the result by 6. As an amateur, you can get really close to ball parking your cadence in a very short time. Other options of watts, calories burned, carbon footprint are all extra clutter in my opinion- if any of this is important, you can do the math formulas with the data this unit provides. This is the third Velo 7 I have purchased, and this one was for a friend who has been using his phone app gps--which is annoying and inaccurate most of the time. Riding specific bike paths makes mapping unnecessary as they have these devices along the way- called signs!Read full review

I like the CateyeVelo 7 wired. I am an older rider. I don't do garmin. I do use Strava but when the signal drops and I loose my info it bugs me. The Velo 7 gives me the info I want quickly. Speed, time, avg speed and OD. The unit measures down to the wheel cm. Very accurate. I ride olskool 42x18 fir 1500 miles to get my legs right before jumping up to larger gears Cateye has been my bike comp. Choice for over 40 years. LeMond, Bottechia, Giant MTB Enduro7 Fugi, Trek T100 tandem, It's what I ride .

For any bike rider that is searching for a basic functioning bike computer, this Cate Eye Velo 7 is the perfect fit. It is very reliable unlike the wireless modules which can easily foul up at a miss touch or incorrect reading from the magnet to the computer read input versus a wired bike computer such as this Velo 7. The wire is thick enough for durability and the rider can be at ease knowing that after the appropriate installation and computer set up of this product, they will get an accurate measurement of their bike ride each time. It is cost effective compared to other bike computers and the display has nice sized displayed numbers that are easy to see and read. The 7 functions of this compact unit are the following: Clock, riding time, avg. speed, max speed, distance, and odometer/distance reading when programmed correctly between two bike sized tires. Cat Eye makes reliable products in the industry of cycling.Read full review
