Comments about CatEye Strada Cadence Bike Computer:

After researching different computers, I settled on the Cateye Strata Cadence because of the fact that it was wired (which to me is always a more reliable communications connection for any device), the ability to measure cadence, and the rear wheel sensor. The rear wheel sensor comes in really handy because the computer can still be used on when riding on the stationary trainer.

The Strata Cadence has been very reliable and proven to be very accurate when compared with GPS apps like Strava or Map My Ride.

I have put about 1200 miles on my computer and it is still very reliable. It's only week point is that it is very hard to read once the sun starts going down because there is no light or if there is very bright sun due to glare.

Comments about CatEye Strada Cadence Bike Computer:

I bought this a week ago and so far love it. The install was fairly easy, only took about 20 minutes. My only gripe is the display size. It's a bit small, and does not have a back lit display. These are minor gripes though, for [$] this computer is perfect for my training setup.

Comments about CatEye Strada Cadence Bike Computer:

The installation of the sensors took some time. This isn't the computer for someone not willing to jerry-rig things a bit (I scavenged the magnet from my previous computer). The instructions definitely could have been more specific, but in the end everything works right. Turns out, the cadence magnet doesn't need to be 3mm max from the sensor (which is good because there is no way to make that happen on my 1978 touring bike.)
Setting up the computer itself was quick and easy and operation is intuitive.

Comments about CatEye Strada Cadence Bike Computer:

I bought the Strada Cadence because it was the cheapest computer I could find that tracked cadence and had many good reviews. Overall, the unit is pretty easy to install. I initially had this computer installed on an old mountain bike and had some trouble getting the speedometer magnet close enough to the sensor because there was too much space between my left chain stay and my rear wheel (the sensor and magnet need to be within 3mm of each other). However, I was able to use the extra rubber padding that came for the cadence sensor to close the gap.

I then put this computer on a new road bike and it installed flawlessly. I had no trouble getting the cadence or speedometer sensors close enough to the magnets. Running the wires along the frame of the bike was pretty easy too.

Before you install the computer I highly recommend reading the directions carefully a couple times. The first time I installed it, I wired everything up on the right chain stay and as a result had undo everything and reinstall it. Also, make sure the magnets pass over the cadence and sensor lines, which are clearly marked on the sensors. I originally had some difficulty getting thing working because I neglected to line up the magnets properly. I initially thought the magnets could pass over anywhere on the sensors, which is NOT the case. All these thing are documented in the instructions.

The display is a little small so I can understand why some people complain that this computer is tough to read. However, I've gotten used to it and have no problems reading the display even if it's to take a quick glance down at it.

Comments about CatEye Strada Cadence Bike Computer:

Had 4 bike computers. Last Cateye (Astrale) lasted 1500 miles. This Strada cadence pulled it's wires out of sensor before even being mounted to bike. JUNK. Compare the way Cateye fastened wires to sensors on Astrale. Very sturdy. This Strada the wires just snapped as I was fastening sensor to frame.

Impossible to mount within 3mm tolerances on my bike (a hybrid) and the wires are very fragile.

Rides and trainer spins

Comments about CatEye Strada Cadence Bike Computer:

Everything with the Cateye Strada seemed fine on my first three 20 mi. rides. When I put my bike on my trainer to do an indoor workout the total time on the Strada didn't jive with the wall clock or a TV program I was watching. I rode for exactly 30 min w/no stops according to wall clock and television but Strada said I'd only been riding for 18 min. That's quite a difference! New unit and new batteries. Does anyone know what gives?

This is a great product except one thing. The wiring they use is too light and it broke the second time I used it... Now the cadence doesn't work. I love the coputer but I am disappointed with the design of the wires.

Comments about CatEye Strada Cadence Bike Computer:

My cateye strada cadence bike computer stopped working after three months. Specifically, the speedometer stopped working and it reads 0 MPH no matter how fast I go. This means I don't get any data when I'm riding (elapsed time, trip distance, or total distance). Miraculously, the cadence sensor still works and so does the clock. I cleaned all the contacts, moved the speed sensor within 3 mm of the wheel magnet (as per the troubleshooting section) and even jiggled the wires. At this point, the owner's manual recommends says to replace the bracket sensor set, at $17[@]
