    I've been using my 750E for the past 2 years now, before that I had on of their currently discontinued models the Rider 330E. The 330 worked great for me when I was commuting 10 mi. a day on fixed gear. The 750 was a big game changer for me when I purchased a new road bike this year with sram axs etap, as well as purchasing both the speed and cadence sensors from garmin.

    One thing the Bryton does, that not many others do, is store and allows you to set an absolute Odometer reading for your bike. This is great when you want to change to a new computer on an older bike and you want to preserve the total Km's history for servicing tracking. It keeps this parameter on the device. Extremely handy for me.

    I'm looking into the 750SE at the moment. I got a Rider 330 in like 2017 and then a rider 420 in like 2019. I haven't had any issues with those two Brytons. I had a Garmin Edge 500 before the Rider 330. The Rider 750 has been on my radar since it was first released.

    I've had the old 750 for little over a month. I'm generally satisfied with that one. The screen could be a bit brighter and the battery life is OK but not more. On the other hand I bought it for 150$ with the aluminum bracket include. Great price for a touch screen device 😎

      I just got 750T (3 sensors included) for £150. Only bought it as I could not justify spending £60-£70 on wireless Sigma bike computer, or 420H... I am not so sure about the screen brightness... I am on a verge of returning it because of this. But there is nothing else on the market that gets even close to 750T at this price point.

    Thanks for the detailed review. I am considering this bike computer, but it also needs to support my smart trainer, an Elite Turno. For that, the computer needs to allow me to enter custom figures for wheel circumference, in my case 137mm and not the usual figures for 26” - 28” wheels. Is that possible with the 750 SE?

    • @mlegrand

      I’m not sure. My trainer does require wheel dimensions. I’d reach out to Bryton for details on that question.
