Wireless Odometers Suck
So who decided that a wireless odometer is a good idea?
- The only benefit that I can see in them is the time saved by not having to run a cable up the side of the fork – Lazy people.
- They aren’t anymore aesthetically pleasing, as instead of a single cable, you end up with a half brick cable tied to your fork – Builders.
- There is now two things with batteries to die, and twice as much work to troubleshoot – People with too much time.
Last night I was out on the road bike with Vo, doing on of our regular summer loops in the dark with big lights. Was great fun, except the cold meant that my odometer/speedometer/cycle-computer refused to work, so it didn’t log the 30 or so mile we did. Oh, and my water bottle froze!
