Yeah that must be why all the professional cyclists for every major cycling team use them. They need to slow down.

a computer will only slow you down and cause mental distraction. a cyclist performs better without a computer

@210482fmj With a computer, a cyclist can pace themselves. This way they won't burn themselves out thinking that they are going slower than what they really are.

[210482fmj]

@Shocker9 my mind can do that far better and more accurately.

@210482fmj it all depends... most people know how far for how long they can go.... but over a distance, like say if you want to go off the front and TT by yourself in the last 10 miles you need to know what power you can keep and how many calories you've gone through. But sometimes it's a positive and other times it just bothers me!

@trackmatt123 I find computers just seem a mental distraction and the knowlege of it being on the bars is another distraction that effects concentration.
