Basic bicycle computer,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cateye CC-VL510 Velo 5-Function Bicycle Computer (Sports)
The Cateye CC-VL510 is a basic bare-bones bicycle computer that handles the most basic functions. I bought it for my new commuter bike (Jamis Commuter 2) so I can track my miles ridden towards my annual goal. My 15 year old hybrid has a still functioning Avocet 15 bike computer and I didn't read the details on the Cateye Velo 5 and didn't realize I wasn't getting average speed and ride time...two features I also track for each ride. Not a really huge deal, for the price I can't complain.
The computer installed easily enough with two minor issues to note. (1) The computer's components are largely held in place by zip-ties. You may want to make sure you have spare zip-ties on hand, I always find the ones that come from Cateye to be brittle and break easily. (2) The instructions are hard to follow - the print size is tiny, there are a gazillion different languages on the fold-out poster and you end up having to rely on illustrations w/o any text for the installation. The drawings are sort of vague at best, but fortunately installation is a no-brainer. It doesn't matter how far up or down on the spoke you place the magnet (I thought it did, and had to Google this question because the instructions don't mention this.) Overall I'm pleased, its about as basic as it gets. I hope it lasts 15 years and then some as my Avocet 15 is doing on my Specialized Crossroads. Happy riding gang. James

Great computer, easy installation.,
This review is from: Cateye CC-VL510 Velo 5-Function Bicycle Computer (Sports)
I picked up the CatEye CC-VL510 from REI, and strangely the case is different than what is pictured here. It looks just like the Velo 8. I'm not sure if mine is an older or newer version of the same model, but I like the look MUCH better than what is pictured here. (Either way, the functions, documentation, and the mounting kit are identical to those pictured here.) The installation is easy and requires no tools. It took me about ten minutes, but if you've installed one a bike computer before you could probably do it in 2-3 minutes. The documentation is a visual guide, not a written guide. I would have preferred a combination of written and visual instructions, but once you get your head around how it works you don't need instructions at all. My main concern was mounting it on a mountain bike (with a front shock), and that was no problem at all. The thing works like a charm, and the one touch operation is painless. (Holding down the button for 2 seconds acts as a 2nd button in situations where one isn't enough.) More than worth the $20 bucks in my opinion.

This review is from: Cateye CC-VL510 Velo 5-Function Bicycle Computer (Sports)
I was just looking for speed, trip, and odo. This seems to be fine, but was surprised by how small it is. Installs easily, took me about 15 minutes. Happy with my purchase considering the price.
