Score 9.0/10

+ Just fit to bike using handy bracket provided and go, no calibration required. Routes are then stored for computer analysis and can be used next ride as a training partner to race against. The screen is able to display many fields of information.

- I found it a bit difficult to work out how to use the many functions.

Memory card slots come in many formats: Compact Flash Card Memory Stick Duo Micro SD Card MMC SD Card SDHC Card
Built-in Camera	No
Some GPS products come with a built in digital camera that allows you to photograph the place you are at and then add it to your map. Next time you wish to visit that place you just tap the image and the Satellite Navigation system plots a route. This is great if you don’t want to have to remember street names.
Spoken Directions	No
Some Sat Nav systems have a range of voices that clearly speak directions to you as you approach your next waypoint. This is extremely helpful when you need to concentrate on driving, especially in busy cities or areas you are not familiar with.
Speed Camera Warning	No
If the Satellite Navigation device comes with speed camera warning built in it will alert you whenever you are approaching a speed camera.
Windscreen Mountable	No
If the Sat Nav is windscreen mountable it will come with an arm and a suction pad. Being able to mount your Satellite Navigation device on a windscreen is important as it offers greater visibility and as a result less distraction whilst you’re driving.
