Just returned it to lidl, gave me a full refund after it stopped displaying the current speed. I did the usual thing and changed the battery first , but still no joy. Real shame though as i only bought it at last months promotion, and had been pleased with it. Customer services checked round local stores for any left over stock but i knew there was little chance. Still i suppose you get what you pay for.:huh:



change the magnet the magnets on cheap pooters are rubbish usually plastic and weak , bike magnets are easy to get from lbs or online for around a quid .

If the other functions still work it can't be the magnet as they also need the magnet.

I've fitted one to my wife's bike, still going but not used much. If it does last I'm amazed at what they're providing for the money.

Cheers for the advice, but i never fitted the plastic magnet, like you i also thought it looked dodgy. I used the one from my old Raleigh computer. The fault was definitely with the unit itself.
