Why would you rather have that than a dedicated bike computer? Do you plan on jogging with it? Wearing it as a watch?

 

If you're only using it for cycling, get a cycling computer in my mind.

I had a look at one last week, fortunately I could fit it before buying. It feels a little small when on the arm. I also didn't like the feel of the strap at all, very stretchy and flimsy. I went with the 735 instead.

I am thinking of buying one of these.

 

They are marketed at "joggers", whatever that is.

 

Anyone used them while cycling?

People who run for fun!!

Thanks, Bertus.

 

I have a dedicated cycling computer.

 

I gave away my Samsung watch so I am looking at replacements.

 

I do not plan on running(ruptured Achilles)

 

I will be wearing it as a watch.

And the 735 serves you well for cycling?

I use my FR 935 while cycling, but looking at the numbers while riding is too distracting. Bought it primarily for "running a little bit faster than jogging".

Only use it for running. But its a dedicated tri watch so should be fine for cycling.
