Nashbar Wireless Computer

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
Ever heard "you get what you pay for"? I knew I wasn't getting top of the line, but I at least expected it to do the basic functions that it was advertised to do.

Problem is that the computer is affected by highline wires, cell phones, and apparently flat panel monitors (my max speed while sitting at my desk writing this review has been 75.9 mph). I can be cruising along at a steady pace and all of a sudden the speedometer starts jumping around to different speeds.

In a recent time-trial training ride, it totally reset my time and distance back to zero about 3/4 of the way through the ride.

Called Nashbar and they said turn off my cell phone and don't ride near highline wires -- or -- get a better computer. They said they would replace or refund if I paid shippping.

Let's see ... shipping fees, insurance, time and gas spent going to the post office. Nevermind.

Big help.

Strengths:
If you can really ride 75 mph it can keep up.

Weaknesses:
Not reliable.
Piece o'junk.
