Recommendation on Large-Print, Wireless Cadence Bike Computer

I'd like to ask for advice/recommendations on a wireless bike computer with Cadence, preferably with larger letters (suffer from OldGuySyndrome) I've been using a Cateye CC-CD300 on my Surly LHT, but the cadence number against the blue background is difficult to read.

Thanks in advance.

Garmin 705. You can configure it to make the cadence take up the entire screen if you want. P.S. As a fellow Old Guy my bike computer was much easier to read when I had a pair of bifocals made specifically for riding after measuring the distance from my eyes to the bike computer when I was riding.

+1 on Garmin you can adust how many screens you are looking at from 1 to 8.. 2nd choice would be topeak v16 wireless..

The Sigma Rox 8.0 and 9.0 have wireless speed and wireless cadence sensors. You can't make cadence take up the whole display like the Garmin but I find it easy to read. I took a picture of it when showing just cadence in the top section of the display.
