Xoss G+ VS Magene C406 Showdown | Which bike computer should you get? 

Thank you for sharing! This is very insightful!

So for elevation which one is accurate? Xoss/c406?

@@ItemsYouNeedToKnow if you watched the entire video xoss g+ tends to exagerate elevation which is supported by posted data.

@@WiserBiker tq for info

Hey Oompa! Which specific Bryton model did you purchase? We used Xoss G+, Magene C406 and Wahoo Elemnt Bolt. They all pause automatically when you stop and resume when you move. We did run both Wahoo Bolt and Magene C406 to see if there are any significant differences in terms of the parameters reading after the ride and they were pretty identical. We think the ones that we have tried were of great value at the given price point. A Garmin or Wahoo bike computer definitely goes a long way but we just want to have a feel of different bike computers at a different price point so that we can share with the viewers if they are good or bad. Once again thank you for your honest opinion! Good to see another local channel bike content creator 💪

I also got the issue with the auto-pause on the Magene. It appears that my power meter prevents the Magene to go on pause, since it always transmits some data even when not riding. With no power meter, no issue, which is a shame

Hi there. Is the Garmin 430 a cycling computer or just a GPS device for cars? 🤔

This is my issue with my XOSS G+ also as I have to adjust the elevation in Strava everytime

Thank you thank you :D

Magene is faster base on our experience :)

Thank you :)

Magene and Xoss both have a pretty similar display of current speed. That say, Xoss have a slightly bigger display. In terms of customization for Magene, should be able to have 4-5 parameters display at the same time minimally. We have never tried to display all of the parameters you stated

Based on your usage, you dont need sensor.

Hi there again, for your case, you don't really need the extra sensors, the bike computer's GPS would be good enough =)

There are a couple of great options. Coospo BC107, IGPSports BSC100S and Magene C406

@@WiserBiker thanks a lot for that

Both have auto backlight! We are still using both the bike computers :)

@Jerry Walsh The magene C406, on the other end, can use both sensors or GPS.

@@sylvainmichaud2262 they use GPS so why would you have to input your wheelsize for accuracy? Those are for older cycling computers.

Yes, you can. Having speed sensor will make the reading more accurate and have less fluctuation as there may be scenarios where you will have poor GPS connectivity in certain area.

Hi! From what we know, you can't have magene sync with 2 strava accounts. Magene C406 can pair with multiple sensors should you have different bikes for different purpose.

can

Absolutely! As long as you have ANT+ or bluetooth sensor, you can pair with most of the bike computer :)

@@WiserBiker ok :) thank you very much for your prompt reply

can

I’m facing a lot of drop off with XOSS sensors on Magene, anyone experiencing this too?

Magene will work for indoor cycling as long as you have speed sensor :)

xoss can use indoor. need speed sensor and can do

c406 can measure power while c406 doesn't :)

Both works for us but Xoss have a tendency to have higher elevation gain than usual for some reason

@@WiserBiker so its better to go with the c406... does magene c406 still have problem with the route just being straight lines in strava?

for me Magene C406 Better

Hello Sean! You need to have 2 sensors, one for cadence and another for speed.

It should be able to get speed using gps location to calculate distance traveled by time? Would only need to use speed sensor if gps reception spotty where you ride or indoors.

@@WiserBiker thanks guys!

@@PatSheerin great thanks pat

As far as I know c406 can measure speed without sensor but sometimes it's not accurate many people have same issue so if hou want accurate speed u should get a speed sensor

For which product?
