I am a 79 year cyclist and have purchased many
computers. Before I purchase any computer or any
other Item I will first check with Amazon.com.
Very pleased with my purchase.

I'm so hooked on this computer that I'm buying it again now that my first one has failed. With over six years of service, I'm not complaining. The altimeter function is very reliable, display is easy to read once you become familiar with it. Set up is a snap and buttons to change functions are easy to use with full-finger gloves. A great computer.

I've been trying out to figure out a computer to use for MTB-ing. I don't know much about them, so this is what I found from this.....
Don't really need GPS, but I wanted to get mileage & altitude for my rides, so I thought this would be the shnizzle. Got it set up, and watched the altitude change during the day, and over 150' during the first night. No worries there, just re-set before rolling.
My problem:
-You MUST set your starting altitude at the beginning of each. This would be fine when I roll out of the house to the local trail-heads, but if I drive somewhere, I will have to look up the altitude of each & every trail head I begin riding, & enter this at the trail-head.
-I also sometime do all-day rides & take a nice break in the middle somewhere. If this happens, the altitude could also change on me somewhat while sitting there, in the case of changing weather.
Pluses:
-Lots of info
-Affordable
-I'd love it if I always rolled from home.

I love the MC 1.0 it works great on two bikes (you need another mount but they're cheap since it's not wireless). The display is a little small at first, but you quickly get used to where to look for what data and then you're so glad it shows so much all at the same time. I've never had a problem with it not recording a ride (unlike with wireless computers) and having the temperature always displayed is especially useful. The menus are easy to navigate and make great sense. The only thing missing is a backlight. I use mine for mountain biking and road riding and it's stood up to a lot of abuse over the last year.

I've used an Avocet 50 for about the last 15 years. It still works but the new VDO altimeter is much more sophisticated. I can recommend it.
Pros: Lots of functions, works well, easy to mount and use. The mileage to 2 decimal places,.. hundredths of a mile is great! But,...
Cons; I'm seldom interested in my speed, usually I already pretty well know it. As a tourist, I watch mileage very close. The speed is in big numbers but the mileage is difficult to read, numbers at the bottom of the screen are too small!
And the operation using all the keys to do one thing is too complex. Seems like another key and a simpler sequence would have been easier.
But,.. overall it does seem to be a good computer, I've already got about 250 miles on it and it has worked with no problems!
