Disadvantages: Fitting it was a bit tricky for me

...When I bought my new bike at the beginning of the summer I had plans to cycle five miles everyday. But as you can probably guess this was short lived and I soon gave up the ghost. Anyhow that is why I purchased a cycle computer. I bought this particular one not because I wanted it, but because the one I wanted was not in stock and this was the next best one. The Raleigh Echo W1 is a 9 function cycle computer that can tell you your current speed, riding time, total riding time, Average speed, trip distance and Maximum speed.
