Bicycle accessories for bike computers - buy bike accessories

In this section you will find a lot of bike accessories for bike computers for every taste and budget. Why do you need bike accessories? For example, with the help of a bicycle computer, you can measure the speed of a bicycle, travel time, time, average speed. With the help of a heart rate monitor (Sigma Sport), you can measure your heart rate, set limits for the pulse, find out the average heart rate, maximum, and much more.

Purpose of the bike computer

With the help of an electronic device, a bike computer, it is possible to analyze certain parameters related to movement. It is presented in the form of a small device, which is installed on the handlebars of a conventional or electric bicycle.

The on-board electronic computer allows you to track the mileage of the bike. This is important, because after a certain number of kilometers, replacement of components is required: chains, sprockets, shift cables, brake pads and others. Thanks to the received data, maintenance will not be missed, all replacements will be carried out according to plan. That is why everyone needs to buy a bicycle computer-speedometer, especially since its price is low.

What can be a bicycle speedometer?

Even a simple bike computer can provide a lot of information. Its display shows:

• wheel speed;
• total mileage;
• speed (current, average, maximum);
• trip mileage;
• travel time.

More information is collected on more expensive models. An inclinometer, a stopwatch, an altimeter, a reverse timer, an odometer can be introduced as additional equipment. In this case, the user will receive information about the power of the electric motor, his own heart rate, calorie consumption, current air parameters, etc. But still, the main purpose of such equipment is to determine the movement indicators.

The most simple are magnetic models. Such a bicycle speedometer works as follows: a magnet is attached to the spoke of the wheel, and a sensor with a reed switch controlled by Arduino is attached to the fork. When the magnet passes near the reed switch, the contacts close and the device counts the revolution of the wheel. Speed ​​and distance are calculated based on the wheel circumference specified in the settings. Such a device is wired and wireless. In the first case, wires are used for data transmission, in the second, a radio or bluetooth channel is used. Buying a wireless speedometer for a bicycle (bicycle computer) is worth it for those who want the vehicle to look more neat. Such models are equipped with additional sensors to measure the pulse or the speed at which the pedals rotate. For electric bicycles, it is recommended to use wired bike computers, since during the operation of the engine, magnetic fields and other interference may occur that interfere with the operation of the device. There are also GPS computers for bicycles, which are a must-buy for avid travelers. The devices use the satellite signal to calculate the distance, speed and other parameters, and then send them to a smartphone or computer.

How to choose bike computers?

The price of a bike computer can be quite high, so it is important to choose exactly the device that is needed. First of all, it is necessary to determine what information should be obtained. After that, you need to pay attention to:

• the presence of highlighting;
• display type;
• convenience of the location of the buttons;
• font size;
• energy efficiency indicators;
• data transferable.

in specialized stores, you can buy additional devices for fastening.
