COOSPO Bike Computer Wireless GPS, Bike Speedometer with Auto Backlight, Bluetooth ANT Cycling GPS Computer, Bicycle Computer BC200 with Waterproof, Compatible with CooSporide app

This is the first bike computer I have ever bought or used. It was inexpensive compared to other better-known brands so I was unsure what to expect. I did have some trepidation about how to set up and use. The instruction booklet that came with the computer had really tiny print, and the minimal illustrations did not offer a lot of assistance. There is a decent YouTube video by Coospo online that was much more helpful, but it was narrated by a woman with a strong Asian (Chinese) accent who spoke softly and fast. She explained a lot of the basics but not much elaboration. However, after playing with it and all the functions I was able to become very comfortable with it in only a few bicycle rides. I am guessing it seems a little more intuitive if you have prior experience with these sorts of electronics. The bottom line, it tracks and monitors my BP, power, cadence, distance, time, elevation, etc very well and can be synched with Strava. I use the free version of the Mapmyride app and simply input the data from the Coospo computer into that. Note, this is Coospo BD200 bundle and comes with the cadence sensor. I bought a Coospo arm band BP sensor separately, and only one of my bikes has an integral power meter that easily connects to the BC200. Battery life is good and overall I am very satisfied with my Coospo BC200 bike computer.

This cycling computer is easy to use and is responsive. It has a long battery life, so you don't have to worry about charging it too often. The bluetooth sync is very convenient, so that you don't have to plug this via usb to sync your workout. One problem though is that the CooSpo ride app isn't the best. I have to log-in every time I close and open the app, even if I had just logged in a moment ago. It does let you automatically sync to Strava though. I combined this with a HR monitor and one-sided pedal power meter to get heart rate, speed, power, and cadence. Since it's a budget cycling computer, it won't read dual-sided power and doesn't have any turn-by-turn navigation capabilities like you would with a higher end computer like the Garmin Edge. Otherwise, it's a very good no-fuss GPS cycling computer.

For the money, this was exactly what I needed. The display is easy to read, navigation takes a minute to get used to but it’s not bad, the app easily syncs with Strava and it seems pretty accurate compared to my Apple Watch. I used it for a season and upgraded, passed this on to my son and he loves it. Does just enough for what you need without being overly distracting. I’d recommend it to anyone.

I’ve needed to focus on a part of my riding that I thought would be tracked by speed and heart rate alone. Bike computers have been what I have been looking at for over a year but I keep coming to Garmin and the price for the Gold Standard. Just I am on an aluminum budget. I came across COOSPO and had a buddy using one on his bike. We would ride side by side and he would tell me what he was reading on his COOSPO computer, and our third rider had the Garmin and they were not off but a small amount that for my standard didn’t matter. With that in mind, I started looking into the COOSPO equipment and reading the reviews and this stuck pretty well in my mind. What I did not like in the COOSPO experience was knowing what pieces to purchase for the computer I had chosen. Here today I lived through this and what I thought might be the oops turned out ok. A good experience, you do not only have to go to the COOSPO website but Amazon has a good selection. Installing the bike computer and components on the bike could be a little clearer. I did have an issue with the wheel size but a quick look online got that corrected quickly. Now all is operational and working well- I have made 3 rides using the COOSPO on 2 different bikes and am pleased with this purchase. I ordered the BC 200 bundle, Speed and cadence sensor, along with the H 808 Heartrate Strap. After getting this all set up on 2 bikes I can now see where i need to work on me. Measuring my cadence, with Heartrate alongside speed I can see where I am at in my training, and with another plus, it communicates with Strava and now I can follow and track how I am doing. Now it would only do the same with Garmin but that is business.

This was my first bike computer - I was mainly wanting to get an idea of how many calories I was burning along with the total miles traveled. This was one of the few computers that shows calories and I was thrilled with that. From my understanding, it considers your age and weight along with distance and time and figures the calories from there - it's not exact as everyone burns them differently but this was enough to give me an idea. I later added in a heart monitor strap which really tuned in on a more precise number for the calories. Connecting this computer to sensors seemed easy enough - they were found without issue and remained connected. I wish they would name these things with words instead of numbers though - when you start adding several sensors, it gets a little challenging to keep track of which is which. Here are my biggest gripes about this little device: -The buttons are firm and need some strength to push in. There are 2 on the left and 2 on the right and seeing as they are laid out directly across from one another on either side along with the firmness needed to press them, your hand tends to press the buttons on the opposite side since you need some counter pressure (you can't just press a button with a single finger, it would probably break the band that holds the device on your bike) - this, to me was a design flaw and you have to be mindful when pressing the buttons. Staggering them between one side to another would have been a better solution I feel. -Another issue is the menu systems - it seems like they have options that require more presses and scrolling than are necessary. It would seem to me that, for example, a bluetooth connection would be preferred over the other for connecting to my phone to sync my data. Bluetooth is second in the list of syncing connections so there is an extra scroll button press then a selection press. And when you have buttons like this, you don't want to have to press any of them more than necessary. -The temperature reading is laughable. I couldn't figure it out until I realized I think it's determining the temperature of the actual device, not the air outside. So if it's sitting on your handle bars, baking in the sun, the temperature will reflect that...I really doubt it was 111 degrees out the other day on my ride during a crisp spring day. -The screen is not very bright and with cycling glasses on, I have to look under the lenses most times to see the data on it. I like the backlight, haven't really ridden at night to take advantage of it though. -The rubber band that holds it onto the handlbars tends to get weak - I've busted 3 of them just trying to adjust the device, remove it from the mount or tilt it to the right angle. Learning curve for me here. -There is no auto-off during a ride. Despite the fact it says in the manual that it will shut off after 10 minutes of no motion, the device remains on if you're not on a ride. It would be great to have the option to have it auto shut off after a designated time. There are just some times I don't want to mess with those buttons and go straight in from a ride to rest and clean up. The things I like: -Displays calories burned (estimated without a heart rate monitor) -Small and compact -Customizable screen -Backlight =================UPDATE=================== I wanted to add in to this review the fact that if you've purchased this unit and are relying on the rubber bands provided to secure it to your handle bars, that rubber band best be replaced every couple months at the most. Mine just broke and the I lost the device on a ride - looked down to see it gone - no idea when or where but it was there a few minutes before. The temperature feature was never fixed on this device and for some reason, it started auto syncing without my consent, attempting to resync all the records that were already synced previously. Maybe losing the device was a sign for me to get a little something better. This bike computer DID do the trick for a while though - I suppose it belongs to someone else now.

This works really well, once you get used to the buttons/functions. My wife and I ride a lot, and this really provides a comprehensive breakdown of your ride. Easy to install.

Very small window and metrics are in imperial sizes could not connect to my wahoo

The price was within what I wanted to pay for cycling computer. My objective was to replace the computer that came with my Sunny Health Fitness indoor cycling bike. The performance monitor that came with the bike doesn't have a backlight, it drains the AAA batteries and now it's not coming on. It will cost about $60 to replace. Well, I thought I would get something better. This is not the solution. I didn't think about having a touch screen. This device isn't touch screen and I didn't even think about that. I need to have that. It's small and I understand that would be good for a road bike, but I would like to have something a little bigger. I ordered the cadence sensor too. Well, that didn't come in the box. Oh, the actual packaging was already open too. It seems like all of the parts and accessories are there...except for the sensor. There were fingerprints on the screen too, so I'm sure I received a returned item. It's back to the drawing board for me. I may end up just replacing the Sunny Health's performance monitor and just deal with it. Sunny Health Fitness improved their app, so I may end up using the app and not even replace the computer/monitor. I have the cadence sensor for the app already. That's probably all I need. Link it up to an app. Use the app on my iPad, tablet or phone. Do I really need bike computer? Hummm, do I really need to replace the performance monitor when I have an app with a cadence sensor? I think my answer to both questions will be "no". Plus, I already use an app for my road bike. Yeah, what was I thinking? D'oh!

Cycle computer doesn’t connect with Apple Health. However it works fine.
