It can also withstand high and low temperatures that mean no matter what season you’re riding your bike, the Meilan M2 will work as usual.

Can withstand high and low temperatures

There are 2 ways you can mount the Meilan M2 computer on your bike and should decide on your own whats the most comfortable way.
1) Hand-bar extension frame.
2) Stem
I went with the Stern as the hand-bar extension didn’t fit my bike, it was too big.

Stem setup was the best fit for me

My Opinion

Round design and relatively simple functionality

As I said before, I love riding bicycles when the weather is good, and while riding I always feel something is missing. Like knowing the current temperature, heartbeat, speed or track my route. MeiLan M2 b bike computer is basically something that does all those things and works very well. I really liked the round design and relatively simple functionality.
I think everyone that loves riding a bike should consider a bike computer and I do think that the MeiLan M2 computer is something you definitely need to consider.
