Hi, i have a wired cyclometer which works fine except i can't get the 12/24 hrs set to 12 hrs setting,but that's not my problem, i am now looking for a cyclometer which can show all functions ( speed,A speed,M speed,time ridden/real time, all together in one screen. instead showing one function at a time,prefered wired installation. thanks a lot.

This is what i am refering to.
Oops,is that A Garmin?

The photo is a Garmin Edge 705. It has a big screen and you can configure how many data fields are shown, as well as what is displayed in each field.

Yes,thanks a lot but the price is not what i like to pay, i will keep looking, i like the idea of showing all functions at the same time like the one in the pic.

I checked the Planet Bike models and they look slick and close to what i am looking for, any pro and con on the wired models?

No, I just installed a wired version on a friends bike and it is working good. Very straightforward installation and operation.
