Fed up with workarounds The unit has multiple shortcomings but I guess these may be different for what you are using it for. I test the basics against an old but super reliable and functional Lezyne Mega C. It sends a live tracking email - Karoo can’t. You have to text a weblink. Lezyne permits a cadence (only) Bluetooth link but Karoo can’t - it takes speed and distance bundled with cadence and then conflicts with its own speed and distance measures - so speed and distance stop at random intervals and gives erroneous data. Lezyne displays a simple clear graphic of the SRAM shifter position. Karoo displays numbers… Lezyne is inexpensive and ‘just works’ Karoo 2 is expensive and needs constant tinkering or workarounds for you to try to justify the costs. Unfortunately I was well through my 45 days when I acquired my new modern ebike with lots of Bluetooth and Ant+ sensors. I have to unpair these to get any sense from Karoo 2. Am just wearied with it…

Karoo 2 Bought a Karoo 2, it factory reset itself three times within the two weeks of owning it, so spent a lot of time logging back in and having to waiting for it redownload all the maps... On the third time I raised a RMA, which was a pretty quick and slick process. Would I recommend a Karoo 2? No, at this time don't think the software is mature and stable enough. Would I say they offer good customer service?? Yes

Never arrived, logistics nightmare I was not able to test the device as never arrived. Their logistic is a disaster. They sent a message that the device was sent and then they tell they cannot deliver, with any explanation. So I sit and wait for a parcel that never arrives. Sort out your logistics use a company like Amazon that knows how to ship goods.

I am a very happy Karoo 2 user I am a very happy Karoo 2 user, for one year. I had some questions, got quick and qualified answers, so I bought Karoo 2. For me, the Karoo 2 was, by far, my best buy the last couple last years. I have used several other cycling computers, but no one matches the Karoo

Poor The fact that the 5 star reviews all seem to be customer service related doesn't bode well. Trip computers don't need customer service. I have a Karoo 2. It's badly thought through and is forever scuppering my attempt to record rides. It's real "emperor's new clothes" territory. Avoid.
