Ms  AnneCondie, GRAFTON
I have a question which I would appreciate you answering. I have purchased this Union XW heart rate cycle computer. What wheel cicumference do I enter if my wheels measure 700x23C because this wheel size is not listed in the instruction booklet. Please advise can anyone help me out there.

Needing better instructions  GregHolmes, Saratoga
Product represents good value and seems to function well, however the set-up / programming instruction booklet is very brief and fails to outline the process very well. I needed to play around with it a fair bit to finally work it out. Overall I'm happy with it.

Save Your Money  RogerMatthews, Glenbrook
You only get what you pay for has never seen a better example than with this piece of junk. Basically the heart-rate monitor is a random number generator, the computer switches itself off whilst you're riding along and the odometer stopped working after a couple of months. It now lays 10 feet under at the local tip! Oh and the instruction manual is the worst "Chinglish" you'll ever read - gives you a good laugh, though. Spend your money on something better.

Good Value,... But....  HeathRobertson, PERTH
Like the old adage... you get what you pay for....

I got this item because it was feature packed... it installed in about 20 - 30 minutes and in initially ran faultlessly.... Except for needing a set of batteries.

A bumped bike in the hallway ended in the broken mount which can't be ordered seperately. Glued ok though...

Sometimes the Heart rate would not show and sometimes it would show plus 240 b/m????

But otherwise great for the first six months...

The with the first few winter rides the cadence stopped being shown... and a little later the Heartrate was less consistant and then the screen display disappeared about the 1 year mark... And so I got just over 12 months from the unit and now its been replaced.

Hope the new model is better.... Good Luck

Excellent MTB computer, Superb value for money  AlanTuck, Reservoir
I had the wired version, had a lot of problems with that (bracket connections and other issues) so I replaced it with this.
Negatives: forget about getting easy trip/lap times, you have to hold the button down for about 3 secs to zero the unit (both HR and speed sides - they're largely independent)
I've also had it fall off the bracket once, luckily I found it again.
Backlight chews way too much power (buttons don't work while it's on) can be deactivated.
Sound gives a beep every hour (annoying when your bike's in your bedroom) can be deactivated.
Otherwise, this is excellent unit if what you want is a unit to display current values, I usually leave it on HR% and distance.
You can program about 5 different target HR zones.
Very adjustable Bracket, I have my display in front of the bar, so I can turn the bike over without worrying about scratches.

Good Value  MichaelBaldwin, MALVERN EAST
Good value, but the wheel sensor is a little bulky and ugly. It would be good if it could be mounted on the rear wheel but mine didn't work properly when I tried this. Apart from that it is pretty cheap, does have a heart rate monitor and good enough for commuting and general riding purposes.
