Bryton Rider 60T GPS unit


With its 3in touchscreen and ANT+ for wireless monitors, the Rider 60 is very similar to the Mio Cyclo. Both the unit and the software are just that little bit less intuitive.

Some touchscreen controls are too small for gloves, though many operations are duplicated on the buttons. Battery life is good, but it tends to stay on until it goes flat. The lengthy reboot makes switching on and off annoying.

The free account on brytonsport.com gives all manner of charts (speed, max heart rate, climbing and so on) and analysis, but it takes time to work out what it all means.

Its big win over the Mio is Ordnance Survey mapping, though this version lacks it and Bryton doesn't sell it separately (you'll have to get them on a card some other way). The cheapest OS version is 540$.

Touchscreen Yes
Extras included Charger, USB cable, bike mount

Price 525$
