 Had some problems, June 28, 2006
By M. V. (USA)
|
|
Ive had the CatEye Enduro 8 for several years now, and ive had a little trouble with it. Sometimes it will not get out of the stand-by or resting mode. I will keep spinning the tire fast, and tinkering with it, and it takes sometimes 15 min to get it to start working, but it always gets going again. This happens when i have to take the display part off my bike when I lock up my bike in a rack, and I dont want it to get stolen. I got a free replacment wire, and it was good for a while, but now its doing it again. It only happens once in a while. Im not sure if it was a bad wire, or if its just that taking the display part on and off makes the connections get dirty, or not lined up just right again.
I didnt have any trouble putting it on my bike, and I really like all the features on it. I rode my bike to work every day, though snow and heavy rain, and the CatEye held up really well. When it was raining hard, I wrapped the display in saran wrap to make sure water didnt mess it up.
If it didnt have that annoying problem with it sometimes, ide give it 5 stars.

 Needs better QC, September 7, 2008
By Sooth (currently in Daejeon, Korea)
|
|
I bought one of this in Oct 2007. Lasted me about 10 months before it failed with semi-displayed digits that no amount of resetting or change of batteries could fix. I have since bought another one which is exactly the same model and I immediately noticed a difference between the 2 units.
The first unit that I bought had an incredible clock drift. Every week, the clock would drift about 10 minutes, even when it was newly purchased. This new unit's clock has so far been stable for the past 3 weeks. The clock drift is around the same as my PC. Now, I'm not sure if there's been a redesign of the unit since the last purchase (eg. changing from a simple RC oscillator to a crystal oscillator) but I suspect that the original unit had some faulty components in it and was doomed to fail early from the start.
Early failure aside, the things I liked about this model are:
1. Does its job well. Just plug it in and cycle. I think that the odometer's off by about 100m for every 5km but I think that a car's odometer is probably off by much more and you can tweak the settings here to match your bike more exactly.
2. Waterproof. I accidentally left my new computer in my bicycle jersey yesterday when I soaked it in a pail for 15 minutes or so. Luckily, it was still working when I tested it this morning.
3. Works in any weather condition. I've used the old one when cycling in -15C winters and it still worked after that. Granted that it failed early but I suspect it wasn't really the fault of the cold weather.
I'm happy enough to buy a new unit after the last one failed but I think that I would have rated it higher and have been less annoyed if they had better quality control. I rated it 4 here but I think that it's really a 3.5/5, an option that is unavailable.
Update: I received an email reply from Cateye within 1 week of them receiving my old unit. They identified the cause of the error and promised to replace my old unit with a new one. I'm impressed with the fast customer service.

 Wonderful for the price!, July 17, 2007
By Matthew T. Meskill (Portland, Oregon USA)
|
|
I've owned this for over a year and have never had a problem. Some of the other reviews sound as if they were written by morons eg: "The instructions were written in twelve languages...geez." That's a good thing you dope...simply read the English, if you can. I just upgraded to the wireless version simply for vanity reasons (I didn't like the look of the wire wrapped around my fork) and, again, haven't had a problem. You can buy this and be happy with it.

Very nice gadget!, February 5, 2009
By Rolando Kleen Gonzalez
|
|
I am at the begginer level on bicycling, and this mini computer is all that I want. Installation is very easy and the operation of the functions are easy too. I usually ride by night, so I guess a back light would be fine, but is not a big deal... I mean... for the price.
Great device...

 They changed their directions!, August 19, 2006
By R. Hesse
|
|
My CatEye Enduro 8 was stolen along with my bike a couple of weeks ago. I have just spent the past hour trying to figure out how to program the same model of computer, thinking that I must have been drinking way too much the past year and a half, if I can't figure out how to program this thing, even with instructions. Fortunately for me, I found the instructions that I got 2 years ago with my original computer. It actually tells you how to set the computer to count miles instead of kilometers. So if you are frustrated by the new directions, try clearing the computer by pushing the Mode, Start/Stop, and Set buttons all at the same time. This is when you select your measurement unit, by pushing the Mode button. If you want to input the reading of the currently used odometer, keep pressing the Mode button for two seconds and input the reading. If you want to start the odometer from zero, push the Start/Stop button. Why did they change their directions? I, too, was ready to take the Enduro 8 back to the bike shop and have them install it for me, for $20. Could this be the motivation for the terrible new instructions? I hope not.

Great basic cyclocomputer, October 4, 2009
By John Q Public (Long Island, NY)
|
|
The Cateye Enduro 8 is a great basic cyclocomputer. With all of the basic functions like speed, trip odometry, total odometry, average speed, and time functions, it's good enough for the casual rider.
And it makes an awesome gift for kids who love to ride bikes-- My younger relatives love it when they are able to see how fast and how far they are going on their bikes. A great way I think to get young people interested in the sport of cycling would be to put a cyclometer like this one on their bikes and let them rip!
My first bike from 10 years ago I had a Cateye Enduro 8 on it. Every new bike I upgraded to since then I also put the Enduro 8 on it. It's been reliable and does everything i need it to do.

ditto on setup, July 5, 2006
By Avid Listener (Bethesda, MD)

you think the guy was kidding about not being able to get it to show in mph - that's no joke. the interface is not intuitive at all, and once you've lost the manual get ready for some fun trying to remember how to reset the mileage.

difficulty setting it up, June 10, 2006
By P. Logsdon
|
|
Just trying to get it to read in MPH instead of KM/H is a challenge...the instructions come in 12 (twelve!) different languages...geez. The instructions are not user friendly in my opinion....so don't really know how to rate it yet...will revise this review after (and when) I learn how to use it...Probably gonna take it back to the bike shop where i bought it to have them help me...

Catey CC-ED300, June 29, 2008
By N. Prokop
|
|
Mounted this on the front tire of a Trek Mountain Bike. It seems like most of these bike computers are made for road bikes, but this one will work on a mountain bike. It has worked well for the month I have had it. The user interface is awkward and the instructions are difficult to understand at best, but after an hour of deciphering the included hieroglyphics, I was able to use the thing. Once I got the hang of the computer, it has been pretty easy to use. The display is laid out well, It will give you current speed, and time elapsed, or current speed and distance, which is what I use most often. I think this computer is worth the money.

Rear Wheel Setup Caution, February 27, 2007
By Glen
|
|
Like many cyclists we use a rear wheel bicycle trainer extensively when the winter weather makes training outdoors dangerous. When we were researching cyclometers we looked for any information that stated "For front wheel use only"; or, "Does not fit for rear wheel". We even went to the Cateye website and looked at their chart to see if there was any information or category stating "front wheel only" for the Enduro 8. Only after doing this research did we then order the Enduro. GUESS WHAT!! The wire length is too short for a rear wheel setup on a standard size bicycle. Thus useless for a rear wheel trainer (unless you have a minibike). Rating of 2 stars is for not providing crucial information for prospective buyers. Update March 28 2007. Cateye was prompt and helpful with my problem. I ordered their extra long kit (more money of course). The Enduro works just fine. I've upgraded the rating to 3 stars.

 Defective +++, March 15, 2007
By Carl A. Chiulli
|
|
It came with a dead battery, I got a fresh one, it checks at 3v with a DC voltmeter, but only parts of the digits turn on. Since I am in the Philippines now, returning it is economically impossible. BUT I can get some satisfaction by removing the battery and smashing the computer with a hammer!!!

A Step up from my old Cateye, July 8, 2011
By Cecil
|
|
I bought this one to replace my old Cateye which I had around six years. I find it easier to use. The operation was a little different so it took me a week or so to get used to it. I like the separate stop-start button. Also the mode button on the back can be pushed with a finger instead of a pointed object.

Good Value, May 25, 2011
By drew
|
|
I had the Enduro 8 for two months, after replacing my old one which lasted for several years. I like the autostart feature where it counts the actual time the bike is moving (you can disable it). It's very easy to install and if quality is the same as my last one, it will take a lot abuse in wet and extreme weather.

Happy Customer, September 23, 2008
By T. Define (Annapolis, MD United States)
|
|
I've had 3 of these computers over 2 years and have been totally satisfied. I bought the Enduro 8 model because of its "heavy duty cabling" which I thought would work best on my bikes. And it has. It's easy to set up, easy to use, provides all of the essential info a biker needs and is also easy on the wallet. I haven't had to replace any of the batteries yet - they're supposed to last for 3+ years. My only issue is I had to buy a replacement cable because my yanked out because I hadn't allowed enough slack running down the suspension fork. But at least it was possible to order replacement parts directly from Cateye.

happy with it, July 8, 2008
By firemedic (Bascom, OH USA)

I did research and decided to try this. It works great. Nice big M.P.H. display. My only complaint is that the instructions were written by someone who has a strong dislike for humans. Other than this, I really like it

Good Basic Computer for Mountain Bike, June 15, 2008
By electric larry (North Carolina)
|
|
Though suitable for road or mountain bike, the heavier duty cable on the Cateye Enduro 8 make it better able to withstand the abuse of offroad cycling. The Cateye Mity is the same computer with standard cabling and can sometimes be found for less.

It works, August 20, 2007
By in8sworld (NY)
|
|
I didn't have to mount this cyclometer myself, so I can't comment on that aspect. I've used it for two years without any problems, other than a learning curve on how to set it up and read it properly. Checking the time of day is tricky, can't replace the battery without losing all your info (not sure if others might have two batteries to prevent this). I may buy another one for the other bike since I know how to use it now.

Cateye Enduro, September 10, 2011
By adam rey
|
|
This is the second one i have owned and while impressed with its comprehensive features what i really liked is my first one lasted probably 10 years. Now that's an worthwhile investment. Built like a tank, easy to mount and set up, has a
heavy duty cable connection which held up to all the bumps and bruises i encountered on the trails, and it dealt with weather and rough terrain in an exemplary fashion. Very tough, well built unit. Very easy to install but the only thing is the set-up instructions were hard to grasp. I finally got it, but maybe its just me! :-)
For a mountain bike computer you can't go wrong purchasing this one!

Good Computer for the money, August 27, 2011
By Captainbob (Atlanta)
|
|
I replaced a Planetbike 9.0 wireless, that fell off my trike on a 40 mile ride today with the Cateye Enduro 8 that I bought on the way home after my ride. The PB is a good computer, but the mount is horrible, and the computer head finally fell off the mount while riding.
The Cateye seems nice and secure on it's mount, was easy to install and program and the MPH display is nice and big and clearer than the PB 9.0 I had. Has all the functions I need, and at a great price. I like the idea of pushing a button on the Cateye rather than pushing on the entire computer on the planet bike.

Enduro, August 20, 2011
By tom
|
|
Works great much better than the Bontrager meter that I had before that quit working after 1 year. The Cat Eye instructions were a bit difficult to follow because of the other various languages and generic symbols included with the paperwork. The bottom line is this is a good product at a great price.

Hoo hooo awesome !!, March 1, 2011
By Naser Alsulaihim (Kuwait)
|
|
This bike computer is awesome !. Thats it :)
On the other hand, the computer's mount needs additional rubber filling to mount perfectly. Can't shake the feeling that this mount is designed for bigger steering wheels.
And there is a major bike mount design failure. Strangely this mount doesn't allow the access mount strip to end outside as you tight it. where as this mount leaves it to go inside, which is practically wrong thing to do.
Beside that every thing about this bike computer is great. Worth the money spent.

Great basic computer, especially if you have high powered bar mounted LED lights, February 23, 2011
By Brian Stephens
|
|
The functions on this computer are fairly basic/old school. The arrow indicators that show when you current speed is above/below your average speed is about as fancy as it gets. Dual tire size might also appeal to some folks, though it's easier to just have a computer for each bike. The wire is extra thick compared to most wired computers and will hold up to some abuse. The main benefit of a wired computer these days is if you run high powered LED lights for night riding/commuting. I have a bar mounted headlamp and it isn't possible to position a wireless computer far enough away from it to avoid interference. This wired model is completely interference proof and I can set up the bike cockpit as it makes sense to me and not interference restrictions. I have not had any issues with it coming out of sleep. Being wired, it does not require a button press to tell it to wake up.

Excellent computer-I have two of them, November 30, 2010
By Gatorman (Tampa, FL, USA)
|
|
I bought my first Cateye Eunduro 8 about seven years ago. It is still on my older bike. Even after several major crashes and the wire partially ripped from the harness the computer still works perfect. The best thing about the latest design on the second one I bought in early 2010 is that Cateye strengthened the wire making it a perfect match for a mountain bike. They also added a nice plastic wrap that conceals the wires around the handlebar area. This is a great 'wire' computer for the price. I have almost 2,000 miles on the two. Data is very accurate and it works fine in sub-freezing temperatures. The only minor items missing that are found on competitor models are temperature and calories burned.

Cateye bike computer, June 6, 2010
By xPlus Labs (Sacramento, California, US)
|
|
If you are a cyclist who is conscious with your biking goals like maintaining certain road speeds, total distance run, including time, then have this simple computer set up with your bike (easy to do-it-yourself btw). I like the large display that shows miles per hour so you can follow 15 mph limit set along bike trails. You can also maintain your speed to effectively maximize calorie burning goals. After a week, see if you have travelled far enough, or better than your previous trips - there is an odometer, much like a car's odometer that just adds up miles as you go biking. You can leave your watch home if you have this. This Cateye (with cord) has friendly price for beginner-, or even professional-use; is reliable, and useful. Just take it off from the baseplate when parking, coz you don't want to lose this very important removable part while you're away.

Cateye always reliable, October 24, 2009
By GEOSOCIALISM (Around the corner)
|

I have ridden with the Cateye CC-ED300 Enduro 8-Function Bicycle Computer on my mountain bike for seven months and it has not missed a beat. I moved it to my race bike and installed the Cateye CC-TR300TW Triple Wireless Cadence and Heart Rate Bicycle Computer on my training bike as I am not interested in heart and cadence data while racing. Cateye products have never failed me and are always reasonably priced.

No Worry Bicycle Computer, September 20, 2009
By Wojtek Ostrowski

Easy, simple to set-up. You need to tweak the calibration for your front wheel - I found the included chart not always accurate. I own 4 of those (on all my bicycles) for many years and all work OK.
If you look for something basic and not-expensive (but not cheap)- go for Cateye Enduro.

Nice Computer, August 3, 2010
By Have Raleigh, will travel (Chicago)
|
|
I got this computer free because the Schwinn 17-function computer jumped off of my handlebars when my mechanic was working on my bike and he couldn't find it. He pulled this off the wall and told me it was a way better unit than the Schwinn and that it would be no charge. I only had to install it myself.
The installation went a lot easier than the Schwinn. The wire is quite a bit stronger and thicker than the Schwinn wire although it was nowhere near as long. That is a good thing as there was plenty of wire and then some to get to the center of my handlebars. The mounting clamp was a much better design than the Schwinn and snaps in SOLIDLY (an issue with the Schwinn -obviously!). Included with the CatEye installation package was a little bit of springy plastic spiral wire loom which works nicely to hold the lead wire to your front brake cable as it makes its way down to the fork leg. What a nice touch and something the Schwinn didn't think of (or care to include).
The spoke magnet mounted much more securely than the Schwinn unit and was stronger by far as the magnet doesn't need to be perfectly positioned or under 1mm from the pickup like it did on the Schwinn unit I previously had (and which jumped off the handlebars for my mechanic). When comparing this unit to the Schwinn there really isn't anywhere that the Schwinn excels in besides the fact that the Schwinn unit supposedly has a backlight. I don't know as the backlight quit working on my Schwinn a couple of days after I got it. Maybe it got too hot in the sun one day when the screen went all black. So far the CatEye hasn't had any issues of being left out in the Hot Chicago summer sun like the Schwinn did. The Schwinn unit was such a baby that it always said it was 10-degrees hotter than it actually was. A thermometer is really an unneeded function IMHO -even more so if it is WRONG. The other "features" that the Schwinn has and the CatEye lacks are silly things like a burned calorie counter and fat counter (how in the HECK do they know if you are going up a big hill or coasting down one? It's just some big guess. Worse than useless IMHO).
The CatEye snaps in SECURELY and I don't feel like it is going to come loose like the Schwinn did from day one. It's also much nicer looking. It's got that "solid" feel and look to the computer unit instead of that cheesy cheap plasticy feel of the Schwinn. Sure this model costs twice as much as the Schwinn but that'll be made up the first time the Schwinn makes a Schwann dive off your handlebars when you are not looking and you have to buy a new one.
I still gave the Schwinn 4 stars because it was so cheap. If there was a way to tether it so it wouldn't get lost it would be a great deal for the money. But now that I've got another few miles on this unit I think I'd spend the extra money on the CatEye if I had a choice again. Lucky I got a second chance to make the better decision when my mech lost my Schwinn computer and gave me a CatEye in exchange. Best thing that could have happened even if I had to remove the sender unit and install the new one. It was worth it. This is a nice Computer. Hopefully I don't forget to take it off the bars when I lock it up somewhere and it gets stolen. I doubt anyone would steel that cheesy red blingy Schwinn unit unless they were a magpie...

Amazon Item was NOT new, May 16, 2010
By musical chemist (Houston, TX)
|
|
I recently purchased one of these, and the computer that I got was definitely used. When I was setting it up, the readings said 0.16 km with a max speed of 30.5 km/hr. The product itself appeared *like* new and seems to be working just fine. It's just a little disconcerting when something is advertised as new, but the one you get is used. And it was shipped by amazon, too. What's up with that? Amazon is usually on top of stuff like that.

Not for use on a 29'er bike, July 23, 2011
By Bo (Virginia)
|
|
PROs:
The unit - simple. This is a good thing because too often we find ourselves with a technological marvel and we do not even come close to use all of a devices options.
The pickup wire is more than long enough for my bike (2011 Specialized Sport Disk 29'er).
The wire, pickup, and unit mount is very secure and well built - not overly cheap plastic.
CONs:
In the instructions, it says the magnet has to be mounted with 5mm of the pickup device. First - what is 5mm in regular measurements? I checked online and it says it has to be mounted within 3/16 of an inch. Much of the American bike industry centers around a mountain bike configuration. The closest I could mount the pick up to the spoke magnet was 1/2" - more than twice the minimum distance required. I think that road bike forks are closer to the wheel spokes.
Second, it advertised a 24 hour time format - not entirely true. While it does support a 24 hour clock, this function is only available using European measuring (metric). If you use regular measurements, the 12 hour clock is your only option.
The instruction alludes to a specific measurement between the axle hub and the pick up device. This specific measurement is no where within the instructions. Typical of a European marketed device, the instructions have vague pictures - no setup text so you will have to decipher the almost hieroglyphic quality of the installation instructions.
The screen is incredibly tiny. My blackberry has a screen twice the size of the display on the unit. And my Blackberry is not 3 feet away from my face when I am using it. Nor do I try to read my Blackberry while going over rough terrain. *I can only guess that this would be true because I was unable to take it out on a ride because the setup does not take into account a 29" wheel. The instructions did actually have a conversion table from European to American measurements - so if you have a 26" wheel, you would be able to set the unit to your tires via the chart.

Does the trick, February 1, 2012
By duneshackdon (Cape Cod, MA)
|
|
I've had a number of Cateye cyclocomputers over the years and they've all served me well. I wouldn't buy anything else. The Enduro 8 follows in that tradition. Particularly impressive with the Enduro is it's ability to very reliably pick up the signal with the sensor pickup attached to the suspension fork well in excess of the recommended distance from the spoke magnet. Nothing is perfect however i.e. the trend arrow reads non-intuitively i.e. down arrow doesn't signify a speed less than the average it's telling you that the display speed is higher than the average speed (or put another way the average speed is lower than the display speed. Get it?) Also mode indicator type size is too small for my tired eyes. Lastly my Vancouver-based son prefers km readout to mph--need to remove the display to make the switch. Picky, picky...

Cateye Enduro 8 bicycle computer/, October 10, 2011
By Deseret Rider
|

I actually installed this on my motorcycle. The supplied wire was a little short and I had to splice a piece in but it's a simple two wire circuit and non directional (so to speak). This is a fantastic unit---easily visible even in sunlight. I like that I can see speed and trip milage on the same screen. Then I can push the button to see what my average speed or maximum speed has been and how much time I have spent (moving). The instructions are simple and easy to understand. What you have to do is 'set' the wheel circumference accurately and then the readouts are very, very accurate to .01 mile (or km) . There are two trip meters and an odometer with shows accumulating milage. I've had one of the cateye models on another older bike for years---and the battery life on that one is fantastic----It was 5 years before it required to be changed---and changing batteries is very easy. I'd recommend this unit to anyone as a top of the line, very reliable, and durable unit. I've had other kinds before the Cateye---none of them can compare.
