Orpington Halfords had some 8 function computers for 3.99, got one on Sat.

If it's their own-brand one I'd be interested to hear if it works properly when fitted.....
Kingston Halfords had some 8 function computers for 4.97 this morning (presumably the same ones as in Orpington only more expensive) and some 12 function for 4.99. I have just bought two of the latter, fitted one and (accidently) left it out in the heavy shower that has just crossed SW London - which should test its water resistance.
The quality of the computer handlebar clip seems to be better than that of my late Catseye Velo 8, which had a habit of flying out of the clip everytime you pressed the button to change modes.

I got the shorts, which look OK and will make casual riding shorts. but I discovered that the 'chamois' pad velcroes in, so these will be a no-no for any long rides at all. If anyone is at all interested, the chamois is removable and is attached by six small velcro squares. So it rucks up easily.
There are two sorts of shorts. One as you describe in a non-stretchy fabric - I only saw black ones. The other sort are lycra with a sewn in pad and I find them comfy, no rucking up problems. The lycra ones are in blue with yellow triangles set in, black with red, black with white and a pattern in red or blue on the white, but no plain colours in lycra. -- Atheists have no invisible means of support.
