Anybody paying attention to this? Garmin has been the 800 pound gorilla in the bike computer market; recently they've been facing some competition from Wahoo and soon from Hammerhead, as well as from the phone app side. The Karoo has some unique features (map shading by steepness, direct cellular access) and looks very nice to use, although it has a high price tag to go with them.

I'm curious about it, and I'm glad to see better screen resolution than in the Garmins, but probably won't wind up with one myself.

It's currently vaporware but may be available in the spring.

    This looks cool, but if I were to splurge on a new bike computer, I'd probably get the Everysight Raptor.

    I know nothing about it, other than the mailing I just received, but this looks pretty cool: https://www.refactorfitness.com/

    Combined GPS comp, light and camera unit. Not mentioning any price yet, so probably insanely expensive, but I might be pleasantly surprised
