Avocet has made this kind of thing for years. I have an old one on my bike and I am sure their new products are miles ahead of this. I wish these guys well, it looks like it could be a good product, but I'm not impressed.

Speedforce is way ahead of Avocet on all fronts - design, functionality, integration and much more. One drawback for road bikers is weight at 350 grams (but only if you are a weight fanatic).

1. No heart rate accessory ? Without that, I don't see it having significant impact.

2. Also if you need your smartphone to provide a screen for the GPS to work, it kinda makes the screen redundant.

3. As for mountain bikes, would have been interested in knowing if it had a trail application to go along with it.

4. Again, for the mountain bikers, how's it stand up to shock and vibration, for those frequent tumbles and trees that like to jump out in front of you ?
