Looks like it was sold as a package (the display and the radar). It would cost more than just the radar. It’s possible that people using phones on their bikes are more interested in the radar. Maybe, casual cyclists not using their phones weren’t interested (the package could have been more than they wanted to spend).

Didn't know about it.
Yeah, it was never advertised much. I guess there wasn’t enough demand. But it shows that they were aiming at a market for the Varia beyond racers who would have a dedicated head unit as a matter of course. I guess the phone app was preferred by the more casual Varia users or simply that it is only racers and club cyclists who are actually buying the Varia. It is a fairly expensive gadget that many casual cyclists will be totally unaware of.
