Replacing bike computer...?

You can't go too far wrong with a basic Cateye Enduro. It's got very large
digits for speed, a heavier-duty sensor wire, and the company stands behind
its product very well (the dealer you buy it from can pick up the phone,
call them about a problem and have a new whatever-it-needs sent out very
quickly). And they don't cost too much either; usually under $30. Sure,
there are some cheaper units out there, but the Cateye is unlikely to cause
you any grief.

Howdy,

I have used a Vetta wireless for quite a few years, but the thing
seems to be conking out in an annoying way:

Now, it just resets itself randomly. It has, by the way, new
batteries.

In any case, it has served me well, and I was about to buy a
replacement.

My first choice was an Avocet 35 only because it has very large
numbers in the display and that would make it easy for me to read
while on the move. Alas, they seem not to be available.

I then started looking at others, but with everything that tempted me,
I checked online reviews. One was rated worse than the other...

And so this question:

What is currently being made that provides the standard basic
functions, and is highly regarded for ease of use, and durability?

Thanks for any tips,

The danger with doing that is once you put one
Jap product on your bike the next thing you
know other Jap stuff will start showing up and
then one day you will be riding that damn Shimano
junk.

Stick with something like Sigma Sport's BC1600.

If you're lucky that Jap junk is still made in Japan.

Just keep that stuff off your bike.
