  1. Can anyone identify this cycle computer and where I would
    get instructions from. This is the exact same computer that
    I have on my bike (bought it second hand) but have no
    instructions for it. The only markings on it is "computer
    club". I tried googling this but didn't have much luck.

    Thanks

    I remember seeing that one in a Cycling Plus review and on
    the shelves at Wilkinson's. I'll try and find out the make
    & model if no-one else helps first. I think the brand just
    is "Club".

    What instructions do you need? Note that wheel settings
    aren't specific to the computer.

    Hi Pete, I would like to make sure that the setting for the
    wheel size is correct. Can you expand on what you mean by
    "wheel settings aren't specific to the computer." Also there
    are a couple of screens that I am not sure of what is being
    displayed.

    Wheel setting for nearly all modern computers is the tyre
    circumference in mm or cm, not some special code. I mean you
    don't need the instructions to your sepecific computer to
    get this information. Just get it from another manual or the
    internet (eg. www.sheldonbrown.com), or measure by riding
    forwards one wheel revolution.

    Any clues? Any words or abbreviations that are displayed
    with the numbers?

    Removing and replacing the battery will probably reset the
    computer to its factory defaults. The time will probably
    read '12:00'. Many computers have a default wheel size
    setting for a 26" MTB, which will probably read something
    like 204(0) representing the circumference in
    cm/mm.

    ODO means total distance registered by computer.

    Thanks Helen,

    I found this handy site which gives the various diameters
    and circumferences of wheels

    It was reviewed in April 2001 Cycling Plus magazine (rating:
    8/10). Just called "Club". Distributor is Crabtree, tel:
