The product did not work. I was not overly optimistic because it was pretty cheap, but plain and simple, it does not work.

I thought the computer was great and gave me all the information I needed, although, I agree that the user manual is incorrect but you can figure it out if you just play with it for a while. Unfortunately, I noticed that about halfway through my ride the other day the computer had stopped working. When I looked, all the wires had somehow pulled out of the unit. I don’t know how this could have happened since it was working fine at the start of the ride. The wires connecting the the computer are much longer than they needed to be for my bike so who knows if they got caught on something. I won’t be getting another one. Maybe wireless is the way to go.

Same price as I’d get locally but got me to free Amazon shipping. The cable is pretty easy to install and the plastic hasn’t cracked and the metal hasn’t rusted inb the 2 years I have owned it. Easy to install

The hitch does what it is suppose to. At first it looked kind of flimsy and I thought that my fork will slip out but the fork is locked in pretty tight. In my set up, I mounted the hitch to a 2×6 board which I lay in the truck bed. That way, I can remove the 2×6 and have use of the full bed without somthing sticking out. You will also need some way to secure the back wheel or it will swing around when you take sharp corners in your truck. I got a ratcheting cargo bar which I layed across the top of my back wheel to keep it in place and secured it with a velcro tye.

Only complaint I have is that the spacer tab (the tab next to the quick release) sticks and hard to move back and forth. I tried greasing that part and it helped some.

I recently looked at the Delta bike hitch pro2 at a bike shop, it costs $10 more but seems lot more sturdy and the mechanism seems to be lot smoother.

As soon as I recieved the product, I tore it out of the package and put it to work on my bicycle suspension. Was relatively easy to pump until around the 250 psi range (which is above recommended for my suspension system anyways). For what I paid for, I give this product two thumbs up. I haven’t tried applying it to tires so I can’t make any comment on that.

The bag is small, but the fanny pack feature puts it all together. The thing is comfortable and just right for billfolds and so forth to wear in a store while shopping. And it will stay up and vertical on the bike, unlike many we have had.

The main feature is to have just the things you need to be able to reach while riding. Cell fone, snot rag, that sort of thing.

I strongly recommend that people not buy this product. It does not work. It fell off my helmet and would not reattach. It is completely useless and is now sitting in the garbage can.

This is unfortunate because the “take a look” mirror is a good product. Too bad this accessory is so lousy.
