wired computers

[VeloVT]

dumb question . I have two wireless computers. I like one but hate the other and I'm considering replacing it, since it just doesn't work very well. The wireless model I like is more than I want to spend right now, so I'm considering getting a wired computer to put on my commute bike.

(These are the two I'm considering:

and

Any feedback on either would be appreciated).

So here's the dumb part: how do you route the wires and get them to stay neat and close to the tubes? Does it require an ugly solution (like zipties)?

For those with wired computers, do you find that the wires a) get in the way or b) are very unappealing, aesthetically? (The bike in question is mostly black, so black wires **probably** won't stick out like a sore thumb).

Thanks!

You run the wire down and immediately start to wrap it tightly around you brake cable. The guy at the bike shop showed us how to do it. You don't really notice them and they don't get in the way. I saw one done like this somewhere in the pictures on this site.

I have one Cateye computer (although not that model) and one Sigma. We like the sigma a lot better than the Cateye. The Cateye is easier to reset than the Sigma.
