Due to a past positive experience with Topeak Customer Service (on a broken bike pump - my fault), I was sold on this company. So when I needed a new computer and saw one by Topeak I checked it out. The features were all that I wanted and it looked simple to use and easily readible. Also, the price could not be beat ($10). It was an excellent choice. It was also easier than other bike computers to install and get set up to use. I am very happy with this purchase and will continue to check out Topeak products.

For the price I didn't expect much and was pleasantly surprised. It has alot of functionality for the money. Instructions are not the easiest to follow but I was able to install and set it up in about 1/2 hour.
Overall I can't complain, it does what I want and it was a good price.

This product appears to be accurate and was fairly easy to install. I would like larger print on the screen as it is hard to read at a glance (the numbers are large enough, but the lettering is small).

I ride about 100 miles a week, and was looking for a simple, inexpensive cycle computer. The Topeak Comp 130 fit the bill. Installation was pretty simple (less than 30 minutes) and the computer does exactly what it said it would do. I've checked the accuracy versus known distances, and it's been perfect every time. I would highly recommend.

Great unit for the price. I have purchased two of these in the last year and they have worked great. Simple and easy to use. Has all the necessary functions a rider needs.

I like this computer; it's fun to know how fast I'm going and how far I've ridden, and it's extremely helpful to be able to check the time without having to look at a watch. However, this computer is pretty tricky to set up, both in terms of physical installation and programming functions. It took a lot longer than I expected to get it working.

This unit has been going strong for me for about a year now. It's simple and easy to use. It's got all the features I want and the price is right.

However, be advised that the unit is NOT WATERPROOF as the product description says. It is water resistant (according to the manual). It has taken many a rain shower for me and shows no sign of problems. However it is not sealed water tight and may give you problems if you leave it out in the rain for days or something. Again, I haven't had a problem but I almost sent it back when I read that it wasn't waterproof as I expected.

Bought this computer because of its functions and price. Very simple to install with clear, step by step instruction sheet.
for this price, how can you go wrong? - I didn't.

After spending 75 minutes futzing with this (including burning through all the lock-ties they sent with it,) I finally got it attached and, I think, functioning.

Trying to give directions in many multiple languages? Not such a good idea on a single sheet (imagine reading fine print from a map.)

Not giving a quick start guide or a Things to be aware of guide? Not such a good idea.

Really really small diagrams? Not such a good idea.

Hopefully the unit will function better than the installation instructions did.

Edit: Updated after I used the device for a year...Yes, it was hooked up correctly...device works fine...still on the same batteries after a year (only ride a couple times a week though, YMMV.)
Updated to 4 stars...
