When I passed mile marker 18, the odometer was accurate to the hundredth decimal place. I was very impressed.Raves:- Accuracy- Size, style and installation (looks great mounted to the stem)- ClickTec ease of use (with the Trek I had to fumble with buttons along the top and bottom)- No ugly wiresRants:- Requires 2 batteries- One time I hit a big bump and the angle of the wheel sensor changed enough so that the magnet and it…
