What is a "cycling computer"?
A cycling computer is a device used by cyclists to track various performance metrics while riding. It is usually mounted on the handlebars and can measure speed, distance, time, and sometimes heart rate, pedaling speed, and height changes. Some advanced models offer GPS navigation, route tracking, and real-time data analysis. Cycling computers help riders monitor their progress, set goals, and improve their performance. They can also be useful for planning routes and measuring improvements over time.
Examples
