    Cycle computer help

    I've just got one of these. Works great on my Brompton with Nano kit. Hasn't dropped signal yet! Also bought the work stand, very impressed for £30, it's better than my £100+ last one.

    They unplugged it from the charger that is still in the shed and just took the bike with the battery still attached to it. Really not happy!
