    Bike computer suggestions

    Hey all, I'm looking for a bike computer to see a little more info on my rides as I go. I use Strava on my phone but don't want to mount my phone to my bars. I've had a look at Garmins and the like which are cool but I think unneccesary for me. I don't want turn-by-turn, maps, colour screens...

    Next year I have a 2 month rural rotation as part of my degree and have a rather lengthy list of towns to preference over the next few days.
