For those of you that have a Powertap, I would like to know what your experience is with the unit. I have a the SL version and it has been very reliable to me. I love it. But I think the CPU mount sucks. Very poor design for a $1000+ unit. I just had to order a new bike CPU mount as my old one broke. One of those golden pins broke and wouldn't come up anymore for a connection.
Lately I haven't even used my cadence sensor cable anymore. Those are so fragile and brake so easily. I already had 2 replaced but am tired of replacing them. I think it's poor design. Why would anybody place the cadence sensor cable at the top of the unit where one has to slip the CPU on/off?
What's your experience with the Powertap system? Anybody else experience the same? Am I expecting too much quality out of a $1000+ piece of cycling equipment?
The people at Saris told me that they never heard of the cadence sensor cable problem. Maybe they forgot that I already called in twice before...
