4.0 out of 5 stars easier instructions available, April 25, 2007

Don't let the instructions scare you. Although it is true, the original instructions are difficult at best, (one large sheet of paper with confusing instructions 12 languages), easier instructions are available in english on the web. Simply Google "cateye mity 8" and your setup troubles are over. Worked like a charm.
As for simpler instructions in any of the other eleven languages? I Can't help you there.
Otherwise, a great bike computer.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Mity 8 has all of the important features except cadence. Recommended., February 11, 2007

By 

BoaltGeek (California) - See all my reviews

This is the lightest, most reliable, most commonly used computer on the low end of the market (the $15-25 range). You're buying what everyone else is (which is both good b/c tells you many consumers who did some research agree with your decision; and bad because, well, you're not hip and individualistic, oh well). This cyclocomputer is great for what it is. Installation is pretty dang easy even though the instructions are basic at best (really, just make sure the sensor is close enough to the magnet on your spokes and that the wires turn with the handlebars). If you're in the market for a device to tell you how fast you've gone how far and for how long, this is it.

The only negative comment I have is that operation is not intuitive, but the instructions make it clear. Really, this is an issue common to all similar devices and cateye's mity 8 is no better or worse than others.

The next step up is a similar model that also measures "cadence" (The speed at which the pedals turn, measured in Revolutions Per Minute. Inexperienced cyclists tend to ride in higher gears than they should, pedaling at a slower cadence; experienced riders in the 70rpm range). Again, Cateye is the way to go, and as expected, more features means a higher cost.

Beyond that are devices that include heart rate monitors. This is great, but there is a substantial extra cost and "gadget" factor. A separate monitor may be better (like on the wrist).

I installed this on my trail bike. This is my first computer/speedometer, and it works well and is accurate. As a senior, I appreciate the large, easy to read numbers, as I ride the bike paths in our area.
