Cateye Velo 9 Cyclocomputer (Black)
1603300
The step up from CatEye's entry-level computer, for riders who want calorie and carbon-offset tracking alongside the same simple, wired reliability.
Overview
The Velo 9 shares its large screen and one-button simplicity with the Velo 7, then adds calorie consumption and carbon offset calculations — figures the Velo 7 doesn't track — while keeping the same pre-programmed tire sizes and easy setup.
It's built around a no-contact magnetic sensor, a pace arrow, and an auto power-saving mode that drops to a clock-only display after 10 minutes without a signal. Calorie consumption is calculated by integrating speed data every second, and carbon offset is calculated from trip distance. A single CR2032 battery is rated for around three years of typical use.
It suits riders who want more than a basic speedometer — those tracking calories as part of a fitness routine, or anyone curious about the carbon offset of riding instead of driving — without stepping up to a full GPS computer.
Why You'll Like It
Calorie consumption tracking
Calculated from your speed data throughout the ride, giving you a running estimate without a separate fitness tracker.
Carbon offset calculation
See the carbon offset of your ride distance, a nice extra for riders who track their commute's environmental impact.
Pre-programmed tire sizes
The same quick setup as the Velo 7 — select from common wheel sizes rather than calculating circumference manually.
Pace arrow
A simple visual cue for riding above or below your average speed, useful for steady-pace rides.
Long battery life
Rated for around three years on a single CR2032 battery at an hour of daily use.
Who Is It For?
The Velo 9 fits riders who want a bit more than the basics — commuters and fitness riders across Indian cities who like seeing calories burned on their ride, without the complexity or cost of a GPS-based computer.
It's also a solid step-up pick for anyone who started with a basic wired computer and wants slightly richer data while keeping the same simple, low-maintenance setup.
Good to Know
Select your tire size from the pre-programmed list at setup — it covers 16" through 26" and 700c. Calorie and carbon-offset figures are estimates based on speed and distance, so treat them as a helpful running total rather than a precise measurement.
