5 out of 5 stars Clean install   September 3, 2010

Wireless is the way to go. It looks clean and the install was easy. If only the display size were slightly bigger but that is all I could complain about and that is not much.

David Topham (Salem, NH, US)
The totally wireless Cateye CC-RD400DW bike computer with cadence counter does all I wished in a simple-to-install and maintain system. The one pick-up assembly (plus two magnets) and a commonly-used CR-2032 battery in the transmitter and receiver makes service a snap without any wires to get snagged, broken, or make the bike look "messy". The handlebar/stem mount for the computer is an excellent design and can fit just about any bike -- and can be relocated without damage to the supplied parts or seeking new Ty-Raps. My only caution is that the small display might not be easily read when cycling by people who are far-sighted. I have no problem reading the numbers and the small size of the computer is really an advantage.

I'm very pleased with the unit and would buy another.



3 out of 5 stars Things to consider   August 8, 2010

I like this computer overall but there are some things that you should consider. The wireless transmitter is located on the rear frame chain stay. On my Giant FCR2 the frame swells in size toward the rear hub. This makes it very difficult to mount the transmitter as it pushes it very close to the spokes. Also the tolerance is VERY close to the magnet on spoke. So there is really on a small margin of space on the Giant bike frame. Realio you have to mount the transmitter and a magnet to your crank arm using cable ties...not the most elegant solution and also a magnet to your spoke using a integrated clamp.

Second the Cateye LED head lamp I have caused the computer to stop working when I had it located on the left side of the handlebar (same side of bike as wireless transmitter) however I moved it to right side and it seems to work ok. Not enough time to know for sure. Strange as both are by Cateye! Also unless you have very good eye sight the display text is VERY small. I like the features, but as a weekend rider I'm not sure that I get enough use out of the cadence function to warrant the extra cost. Finally unless you are really set on getting rid of the wires, the transmitter unit sticks out really far and is very close to the crank arm and has to have a close relationship with BOTH the crank arm magnet AND the magnet on the spoke, so getting this just right takes some fiddling around. No problems after a couple of weeks, but I think you could easily kick the unit out of place. In summary, nice features, but a can be tricky to install and design could use some work.

First problem I had is that I was not able to make the cadence sensor work. I thought we're in 2010...
Second (and much worse) problem is that on the first proper crash, my bike got bumped on the handle bar (not the computer itself!). The computer fell out of the clamp and I lost it forever somewhere in the bushes. The clamp just isn't up to its task.

I am pretty disappointed by spending this much money and being left with a useless clamp and sensor thingy. I am certainly not going to replace the crappy computer.

Get another product. If you already have it, put some extra cable binders on it to avoid loosing it.

Computer works & works well. No more zipties & wires catching crud all over your frame. I like the second odometer feature with its own reset so you can measure distance between 2 points without losing your total distance for that day's ride. Don't get hung up on all the details in the mounting directions with 3mm and 5mm distances from magnets to sensors. Get it close, it will work. I also like that it can be stem mounted so it leaves space for your hands on the bars. Also, I am very tall and have a custom bike and it definitely works at least to approx. 40-43in. distance between transmitter and computer so you can probably go a little further and still be good. Also, I have polarized sunglasses which create a black spot and rainbow effect on my Polar HRM while this Cateye remains perfectly clear and readable. I don't see why anyone would buy a different computer, this thing is excellent.
