I’m new to biking and the forum. I just got a Giant Rapid 3 yesterday (put 2 mi. on the bike riding home!), which I’ve been told is pretty much a flat-bar road bike, so I hope I’m not shunned in this forum!

Anyway, I’m looking for a good cycle computer <$75. The Cateye wireless gets pretty good reviews on Amazon, and my LBS said that they’ve never had complaints from customers. Any other suggestions out there?

What features do you want?

Your bike is a Hybrid, not a Road. There is a forum dedicated for Hybrid riders/owners, you'll likely find more applicable topics and discussions there.

Cateye's are fine.
I'm a huge fan of my Garmin w/ Cadence sensor though.

I'd highly recommend you get cadence, I assume you're new-ish to cycling. Learning to constantly switch gears in order to maintain a 90ish cadence (instead of bogging down and muscling it along with it got tough) did wonders for my skill and endurance on the bike.

Welcome, I like my cateye double wireless no problems at all. As suggested cadence is very useful.

The basics; speed, trip odometer, elapsed time, avg speed. I think they all pretty much have these. I ask because I've heard mixed reviews about wireless computers in general. I am new; haven't thought about cadence, but if its something that'll become useful as I gain experience then I'll consider it.

Caracalla.

Cateye wireless, lots of models available to conform with your required data.
