This new range of compact bicycle computers consists of four devices: the Mio Cyclo 100, Cyclo 105, Cyclo 105 H and the Cyclo 105 HC. The new Cyclo 100 range extends the existing Mio Cyclo 300 series and targets sportive cyclists looking for an everyday training companion to keep track of performance and health.

"After the successful launch of the Mio Cyclo 300 series in May, we are now very proud to announce an extension of our bicycle GPS-portfolio, with a new range of bicycle computers for the sportive cyclist. Cyclists in search of the ideal everyday training companion can choose from the Cyclo 100 series; which offers four different packages. The Cyclo 100 series always has the optimal solution to suit the needs of every sportive user. " says Piet Deschuymer, Vice-President Sales & Marketing MiTAC Benelux.

Mio Cyclo 100

The Mio Cyclo 100 is a stylish bicycle computer that records time, speed, distance, height, calorie consumption and tracks with the built-in GPS. It can be used right out of the box and can be mounted onto any bicycle in portrait or landscape mode. The device is equipped with an anti-glare 1.8" screen, simple menu structure and a customisable dashboard.

The compact design, combined with a rugged waterproof casing (IPX7) and long battery life of up to 18 hours, makes the Mio Cyclo 100 suitable for every weather condition and every track.

With the personal workout partner the user can challenge himself to improve his performances. After cycling, it's easy to analyse the recorded tracks and performances and share it online via the Mio Share desktop application. Mio Share is also the one-stop shop for managing the device and finding out the latest product information or software updates.
