I don't think that the Cateye will take off.

 

No ANT+ for sensors such as power meters is a killer and making use of your phones GPS will mean you can't go on very long rides - my battery drains very quickly when the GPS is active.

Agreed, for a few hundred more you can get the Bryton 330. Sure, it is no Garmin and doesn't come with any sensors either, but I think it is a better buy than this Cateye

Yup, I got excited until I saw the price!! And then if you buy the Thule from Volvo .......

For the price of that rack you can buy a second hand Volvo and rip the seats out and let your bike lay down in comfort!!!

R16K for a bikerack?? And it's not a thule??

 

Yeah, but for for that price it washes, lubes and does minor fixes to your bike while the bikes are secured to it.
