BEing a geek, I would love to know if my line choice was fastest and most effective. Do 20 runs on the same dh trail you can pick and choose which lines worked best. HR monitor could tell you effectively if you are being lazyin sections or working the entire way down. Altimeter is just plain cool haha Current speed is completely useless as you shouldn't have time to look down at the bar anyways.

I can and do see a use, but it breaks so quickly it is pointless.
