Bike computers and GPS

Distinguish between a classic bike computer and a GPS bike computer

There are two kinds of accessories that can be used as a measuring tool and also to obtain reliable indications when cycling: the classic bike computer and the GPS bike computer.

The GPS bike computer is a little more sophisticated. The GPS bike computer has many more features than the classic model as it integrates GPS functionality. It also allows the use of a heart rate sensor, a power sensor, cadence measurement and has a dynamic map with GPS guidance. This accessory is of course compatible with a smartphone to collect the various data that have been recorded. It is therefore a very complete tool that is appreciated by touring cyclists, but also by cyclists who want to measure their performance and be guided in town.
