This unit was easy to mount, the instructions for use were very straightforward and it is amazingly easy to use. I ran through the functions prior to use so as not to erase any data during a ride and that was a help. Have had it now for a month and would not give it up for any reason.
I would highly recommend this to anyone. I will be buying a second bike mount and utilizing it on my mountain bike. The only downside is tha the maximum elevation shown is 9,999. Where I live I routinely ride above that. However, it still continues to record the altitude gained which is most important anyway. This is an awesome computer and you should purchase it. Great computer!
Love using it and logging data. It’s very accurate and great for racing or training.
Very easy to use and mount. I tried a similar Polar computer with disappointing results.
Love how it starts on it’s own without touching a button, because I sometimes forget to start up computers after tire changes. Would recommend this computer to any rider looking to keep track of their performance.

Went through 3 computers before getting this one. Wish I would have bought this one first instead of wasting time and money on others. Don’t think about it, just get it you will thank yourself later. I have owned this computer for a year.

It worked great at first, but started not reading the mph wheel sensor at times even though the battery was good and the pick up was in the right location. Love the two bike feature and all the information it gathers though. I ended up buying the separate docking station for downloading the information to my home computer, but realized that by doing so, you don't get the graphing functions that come with the ROX 9.0. Also, there is not much difference price wise by buying the 8.0 and separate docking station then just getting the upgraded 9.0.
