I’ve had several bicycle computers over the years, Cateye, Avocet,and Now the VDO. I’m very disappointed in the information the VDO gives. The current speed only gives 1/2 mph increments, and the average speed is in 10ths. Even my old cheap cateye had 1/100ths average speed and current speed in 10ths of a mile per hour.
The main problem is there doesn’t seem to be much information on the web about what the resolution of any of the computers on the market, It doesn’t even tell the resolution in the book so it was mounted on the bike before I knew what the score was.

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.

All was as expected from the seller. As far as the product goes, I wish it had a better mounting system.

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!

This is a very well made and designed product. Everything about it feels like a high quality item. I have compared it to GPS readings and it is very accurate except with altitude/incination readings. The altitude/inclination readings depend on atmospheric pressure and it is accurate enough for general purposes, but not precise. Also, it takes several seconds to show a change in inclination (which is documented in the manual). Nevertheless, it is a very worthy product that should be considered by a dedicated cyclist.
