Gone for a new computer since my Wahoo had a "rapidly leaving the handlebars, while doing 40kph incident"
A bit different from the usual garmin crowd - shall see how it performs.
You going to get a speed/cadence sensor for it? I just bought a Lezyne GPS computer but no idea if I actually need to get an additional speed/cadence sensor? I have the Computer hooked to my phone via Bluetooth so not even sure I can add a bluetooth sensor at the same time? A bit different from the usual garmin crowd - shall see how it performs.
Any ideas anyone?
Going to wait and see for a while.

I've got the Lezyne Super (Enhanced) GPS. I like it - simple, easy to read, easy to customise. Works with BTLE and ANT+ sensors (tested both) and connects easily by smartphone for downloading rides. Beacon feature works everytime.
The software side was letting them down to start with and there's still the odd gremlin in the nav side, but the progress has been noticeable and fast so I can live with that. You get a lot of features (turn by turn nav, dual sensor compatibilty, text message/call notifications, barometer, excellent battery live, Strava Live Segments etc) for your money.

Can I ask which Bluetooth speed/cadence sensor you used?

Wahoo RPM Speed and Cadence sensors (they're separate units rather than one sensor.) No issues at all and work fine with Zwift via an ANT+ dongle too (more finicky with the Mobile Link app though if you're that way inclined.)Saw a bargain Canyon Aeroad on their outlet so thought I would give it a go. Fancied a change after 3 years on the Tarmac, plus it has clincher carbon wheels which I was keen for given the faff of tubs. So hopefully once I've flogged my tubs the cost to change will actually have been minimal!

Nice wheels Gruffy, I looked at the knights but I don't think my Tarmac has enough clearance!
2015 on Tarmacs should take a 28mm tyre. Depends on the rim though as we all know.
I had 25mm Corsas on a H Plus Archetype that came up at just under 27mm on a 2014 SL4.

New bike computer
Doesn't ship until 3rd April though
I like the look of these. Doesn't ship until 3rd April though
Hopefully there’ll be no catastrophic post-release bugs or faults as I’ll probably be looking for something like that this year.
