#CATEYE STRADA CADENCE FULL#

The full list of modes is as follows: elapsed time, trip distance, trip distance 2 (which can be reset separately to the other counters), average speed, maximum speed, odometer (total miles) and clock. This is a fairly limited level of customisation, but I guess some people might like being able to have only the functions that they're really interested in available.

What this means is that if there are some of the modes on the lower half of the screen that you simply never use, you can switch them off, so that you no longer see them when scrolling through. The only change to the user interface is that it now has a 'customisable display'. The sensor uses the same battery as previously, so don't worry if (like me) you've still got some CR2032 cells kicking around, while the head unit now has a CR1616. In any case the interface between head unit and bracket is unchanged, so it would be easy to use a Flex Tight bracket if you wanted.ĬatEye say that the reduction in size and weight has been achieved through the use of a smaller battery, but run times are maintained through improvements in efficiency - the head unit battery should last about a year and the sensor about 10000km.

Maybe this is a gram or two lighter than previously, but I rather liked the Flex Tight for the way that you could switch between bikes or from bar to stem without needing to go find some cutters and new zip ties.

CatEye have ditched their Flex Tight bracket for the head unit, replacing it with a simple bracket which is held to the bar or stem via a choice of rubber o-ring or zip tie (both are supplied). It was pretty light to begin with and I'd never found myself bothered by the bulk of the previous generation, so I'm not wildly excited by these most marginal of gains. The head unit is 35% thinner and lighter, say CatEye. It really is simplicity itself and the best user interface of any computer I've used, so it is good to see that CatEye haven't messed with this aspect of the design. There's a button hidden on the back which pushes against the mount when you jab the face, with display modes scrolled with a short press and reset with a long press. Everything you need to access in day to day use is done by pressing the face of the unit itself, ideally towards the bottom. One of my favourite things about the Strada (including its new Slim iteration) is the absence of buttons on the face of the head unit. I found the previous Strada pretty easy to read anyway, but the display here is definitely an improvement. The larger head unit gives space for the LCD characters to be a little bigger, aiding readability. In use, the Strada Slim is almost identical to the previous version. Probably the most significant change is that the sensor unit has been completely redesigned to fit on the inside face of the fork leg rather than behind it. The head unit is thinner (but fractionally wider) and the screen is significantly bigger (23%, say CatEye). This is an evolution of the existing (and excellent) Strada wireless computer rather than a new model. Portly mountain-bikers look away now, then. CatEye say that the new Strada Slim is 'smooth, sleek & slimmed down - like the riders and bikes its designed for'.
