Nellvita is an inexpensive bike computer but with many useful functions. They include: Odometer, Trip Time, Current Trip Distance, Current Speed, Average Trip Speed, Maximum Trip Speed, Calorie Burn, Fat Burn, Stopwatch, Time of Day, Temperature, and it is waterproof. The computer also includes a set
ting to remind you to service your bike at certain mileage and includes batteries. The device comes with two sets of written instructions - a brief set of printed instructions, and a longer, more detailed set of printed instructions. This was our second unit, my husband bought one for his bike and I liked the look of it, so I bought one for my mountain bike too. The installation process is straight forward. One thing you have to watch carefully is when installing the wireless sensor, be sure it is within the recommended distance to the magnet. A lot of people don’t understand this and think there is something wrong with the bike computer. Normally, after installing both the computer and the sensor, I just left the front wheel and turn it by hand to make sure it is working. My bike has very fat fork arms, so I had to install the sensor way lower than your average sensor, almost near the spoke. Also, do not forget the take the battery paper protectors out of the computer and the sensor. The computer actually came with an extra battery which was nice. This bike computer comes with an optional extension arm which was nice because I have a bike bag connected to the handle bar and installing the computer on the handle bar was not practical – so we used the extension arm. There was one problem however, the arm diameter was much larger than the diameter of the handle bar, so I had to use both rubber strips to make sure it installed securely. The computer starts automatically after a few seconds of movement, or you can start it by pressing a button. Once in motion, the Nellvita computer is easy to read. You can set up the computer to cycle through many measurements to view during your ride. There is no “off” button on the Nellvita; it shuts off automatically after 5 minutes of being idle. The computer backlight is bright and can be activated with the press of a button. Update - 3/12/2021 We have now had this bike computer for a couple of weeks. I must say that it is performing better than expected. I have ridden my bike over 100 miles and the unit performance has been very consistent. I definitely prefer the large display. I have another bike in Michigan with the smaller display and have had problems seeing it while biking.
