Reviews over the

CatEye Strada Slim

Fine simple bike computer at a good price

Pros & Cons

This bike computer fails every time. Eventually, the bike shop got it 'working' again. But soon after, it failed again. There is voltage but apparently no good contact between transmitter and receiver and then it doesn't display the time either.

Good readability even in lower light conditions. Nice and small, which is always nice next to your navigation or phone on your handlebars.

Pros & Cons

Unfortunately, this bike computer breaks down in low temperatures. Replacing the battery did not solve this problem. I think the button cell battery CR1616 gives too low a voltage. Above 5 degrees, it does fine. What is also a drawback is that it is difficult to remove from the holder and you soon fumble just is too long and lose the data of your current ride. Fortunately, of course, the little computer rarely needs to be removed from the holder. Distance meter/magnet is not adjustable. This can be a problem with some frames with a bit more distance fork/spoke. What I like is that it has the necessary data on it without any other fuss and it is nice and small

Pros & Cons

Mounting on the bike and adjusting fairly easy. Operation takes some getting used to, but then also simple. Removing the clock from the bracket is not easy.
