Cyclocomputer Specific Need: offset mount, simple
I am looking for a very basic 'cyclocomputer' to replace my broken one, which met all the wants and wishes below. It was a $9.99 SuperGo C-12 purchased before they went away.
What I want:
-Wheel circumference set with 4 digit accuracy (vs. 3 or presets only which some have)
-Offset mount so it is centered over stem
-Front wheel sensor mount
-No cadence needed
-Wired
-Auto start/stop
-Clock
Bonus:
-Temperature
-Inexpensive
I've scanned nashbar and performance and can't seem to find

A Cateye Strada had a mounting bracket that can be used on the bars or the stem for a center mount. It also meets all your requirement, but doesn't meet the temperature and retails around US$25

The Trek Incite 9i also has a mount that attaches to either the handlebars or the stem. It also has a temperature gauge, 4-digit wheel circumference entry, & is wired. I've got one on my MTB.
I also have a Strada on my single-speed, which I also like, although it's confusing to set up.

(its for my fixed gear hence not wanting/needing cadence)
