Thinking of asking Santa for one.

New Cateye Stealth looks nice, any others to consider?

Thanks in advance,

Alan.

Looks like good value for a GPS computer, but certainly not the same as something like a Garmin Edge, albeit at a significantly lower cost.

The [url= http://www.bikeradar.com/us/road/gear/category/accessories/gadgets/cycle-computers/product/review-cateye-stealth-50-cc-gl50-computer-13-47197 ]BikeRadar[/url] review wasn't massively glowing, but if you're just looking for something slightly more advanced than a typical basic cycle computer, then it might be just what you're looking for.

Personally I'd spend a few more £ and go for an Edge 500, they should be available pretty cheaply now the 510 is out.

Cheers, Rich

Edge 200 is great value, but doesn't do ANT+ for HR straps etc. If no HR required, then the 200 looks like a better option than the Cateye

Got an edge 200, you can pick it up for about eight quid. Very nice and easy to use.

At £8 that's certainly the deal of the day 😀

stealth got slated to hell in the mags didnt it for propriatory data - basically was useless for anything.

look at bryton sport - they recently did updates meaning you dont need their software to use the data - makes them more useful imo.
