There's the question in the title --

My LBS is having a storewide sale, and I'm eyeing a Blackburn Neuro wireless 'puter with the fancy 2.4 GHz system.

I've got a Cateye Strada Wireless at home, and I moved it to a dynohub-equipped bike because my Dinotte lights would render it useless on any flash mode. So, I'm wondering if the different frequency band would be less susceptible to the same interference.

I might've found my answer --

I guess that if I find out otherwise, I'll post back.

Got it installed, took it for a ride, and it worked fine.

Thanks for all the help. :p ;)

fwiw, the Dinotte 200L causes interference with my double wireless Sigma 1606L (speed and cadence sensors) unless you keep them at least 4" or so apart. I had to give up a stem center mounting position for the Sigma because I couldn't use the lights where I needed them on the handlebar tops near the stem
