Perhaps I don't fully understand this thing, but the whole reason I have a massively oversized screen on my bike, is because I WANT to see my power, HR, elevation, etc. I get that they're trying to get you to look at the view, rather than staring at your head unit (no pun intended), but I, for one, am very capable of dividing my attention between a couple of things.

No everybody else has the same numbers obsessions as us. 

 

This thing seems cool for the sake of being cool. Maybe the type of thing you pop on that Colnago Master that only comes out on Friday coffee rides....

Fair enough. I guess I'll never understand hipsters.

 

And I don't own a Colnago Master :( But even if I did, I would put my Elemnt on it  :ph34r:

One does not mount a GPS unit of any description on a Steel Colnago master. One attaches ones pocket watch to their merino shirt and goes from coffee shop to coffee shop drinking triple espressos until one has to go home and have a bowel movement...

Don't forget you casquette and leather shoes with laces. And it seems extremely short shorts were also mandatory back in the day.
