I've been looking for a bike computer for bike packing, and think this is the cat's meow.Google Cateye Strada Quickstart guide, and you're on easy street as far as setup goes..I specifically wanted a device that did not need to charge while on a week long ride, and could give me 2 trip distances: one I use for complete distance traveled, and the other for my daily miles I need for navigation. The average speed is important as well. All the data I need is right in front of me.The unit is small and sleek, yet the display is large and readable. Wireless is so nice too!I'm riding a Surly Ogre over rough trails, and hope this unit and its parts stays secure over the bumps.****Update 9/17/24After careful calibration, went on a 10 mile bike ride, computer said I did 15miles.The next day it seemed to be tracking the correct distance, but then the main MPH said ZERO, or jumped around a bit before going back to zero mph.This is too bad strikes for something that should be simple. I’m done cat eye, I’ll be looking into a gps unit instead.

Genial producto

Best bang for the buck. Set up is clunky. I have six of these, one for every bike, and everyone was a bit of a PIA to set up. Not impossible to set up just clunky in that you have to repeat steps to get the right settings. Setting the clock from 24h to 12 was a real patient tester.Once set up they work flawlessly and very accurate.

Great computer, perfect for me and nice a small on my bars

Klein, passt perfekt zur Lenkstange. Der Sensor könnte sollte besser an die Federgabel passen.

Einstellung und Montage sind sehr einfach.Vorteil: keine Kabel, die stören.Nachteile des Tachos: ist etwas anfällig gegenüber Fremdstrahlung. Wenn ich meine LED Lampe in einer hellen Stufe nachts anmache, die in der Nähe des Tachos montiert ist, dann streikt die Übertragung komplett. Außerdem etwas blöd ist das Klick-Verhaltens des Geräts, wenn man von einem Modus zum nächsten schalten möchte. Unterm Strich aber als Fahrradtacho für das Geld ok, würde ich mir trotzdem nicht mehr kaufen.

I have it installed on a stem (35 mm diameter) with the rubber band provided. Looks great, almost invisible, works very well. Here's the thing for all of you not familiar with this kind of clicking button this computer has. The button is underneath, not on top as you may guess. So when you operate it in your hands when setting up, it's kind of clunky but when installed on the bike, it works easily and exactly the way it should. The whole piece works as a button. You'll see, get it. I like it a lot as for a traditional bike computer. I like the dual distance measure.

This item is so far so good. Was very easy to install. Directions were a little long and somewhat hard to understand. Works great after going through the directions. This is the second purchase and both are operating fantastic. Great Product.

Apparently, I bought my Strada at just the right time - two weeks ago. Paid $30.00 if I remember correctly.I replaced an older Cateye Enduro which had been on my bike for 10 (yes TEN) YEARS. It was still functioning, but I wanted to go wireless and get rid of the cable.The Strada was pretty easy to set up (thanks to a good online tutorial (better than the paper instructions that came in the box). A little experimenting and a couple of "user errors" and it was ready to go. Mounting was easy as well.I am an old person -75. I ride 10-12 miles most days and a 25 miler once a week. The Strada has performed flawlessly for two weeks. It's easy to see (on my handle bar). The contrast is excellent. The accuracy is spot on.I don't think you need to pay $42.00. I've seen it at two local shops for $30.00.I am pleased with it. Plan to take it with me for a cycling vacation in Belgium and Holland this summer.One thing: don't trust the rubber band to secure the holder to your stem or handlebars. Use the supplied cable ties and snug 'em down good and tight.

CatEye CC-RD310W Strada Wireless ComputerI am on my third Strada. The prior two lasted about five years each, which I consider reasonable for a device that takes a constant pounding...and which I periodically drop on the pavement (often at speed). I do love them, except for one feature which cost it a rating point (one star), and which I'll get to later.The latest incarnation of the Strada has a few differences from the older version. First, the display looks sharper. It may be that my prior Strada started out that bright and degraded slowly over time, so that now the new one looks much better. But I think it really is a sharper, higher-contrast display.The second difference is the computer mount. The Strada comes in three components: a magnet which screws on a front-wheel spoke, a sensor which mounts on the front fork, and the computer itself, which can be mounted either on the frame or the handlebars. Actually, that's not accurate: the computer is a separate removable unit. Its holder is what you attach to the bike. The older attachment system was comprised of a solid strip of hard plastic over which you threaded a locking piece. It seemed rugged and secure. The new method is simply a stretchy rubber O-ring which loops around the computer holder and handlebar (or frame). Time will tell if this is as good a solution. I fear the rubber band will get brittle with age and sunlight, but we shall see. Tie-strips are supplied as an alternative to the rubber band.I think installation is easy, but then again I'm on my third unit--so I'm familiar with the procedure, and have a pretty good mechanical sense.After the unit is on the bike and the sensor is registering at the computer, you need to customize the computer for your bicycle. You choose between a 12- or a 24-hour clock, and miles versus kilometers. Then, trickiest of all, you specify your wheel size by entering a code listed in the instructions.The Strada has two resettable counters for distance, so you can keep track of overall and stage distances separately. There are, however, only single counters for time-in-motion, average speed, and maximum speed. When you reset the overall distance, the other counters reset as well, except for the second distance counter.Now the "cons". First is the computer holder. When I first got my Strada, I left it on the bike all the time. Then a friend told me that her Strada had been stolen while her bike was parked at a coffee shop. I began removing the computer whenever I left the bike unattended. Eventually, the holder wore down so that it no longer held the computer securely. The computer would pop out and go sailing down the street. I added a bump of glue to the holder, which stopped the computer from departing. I am leaving the new computer on the bike at the moment, but I will take it with me when I park in less secure locations.The second negative is what ruined the last Strada I had, and it irks me enough to subtract from the unit's rating. That's the way in which the battery is held. When you need to change the battery (about once a year, but that will vary depending on use) you slide off a cover and then you have to pop off *another* battery cover! That second piece does not pop off easily. I dug it out eventually, but after the fourth battery change that internal cover was severely damaged. I am certain a better means of securing the battery is possible.I'm a *very* casual bicyclist, but I love measuring distances and seeing my average and maximum times. The Strada is, in a sense, a silly extravagance, but it makes my rides more enjoyable.
