BRYTON RIDER 17E COMPUTER

Pure Simplicity for Every Ride.

The Bryton Rider 17E is the essential choice for cyclists who want reliable GPS tracking without the complexity of advanced navigation or mapping. It features a high-contrast 3-inch black and white display, making it one of the largest and easiest-to-read entry-level units on the market.

Designed with a "one-button" start philosophy, the Rider 17E focuses on providing core cycling data like speed, distance, and altitude with 25 hours of battery life. It is the perfect upgrade for riders moving away from traditional wired computers who want the accuracy of GPS and the ability to sync their rides to apps like Strava.

Key Features

• Large 3-inch Display: Provides a clear, crisp view of up to 4 data fields per page, ensuring you can see your stats at a glance even in direct sunlight.

• Full GNSS Support: Uses multiple satellite systems for fast GPS acquisition and precise tracking, even in areas with tall buildings or heavy tree cover.

• Built-in Barometer: Unlike many budget units that rely on GPS for elevation, the 17E uses a barometric sensor for accurate real-time altitude and gradient data.

• Smart Notifications: Pairs via Bluetooth to your smartphone to alert you of incoming calls, emails, and texts directly on the device screen.

• Live Track: Allows you to share your real-time location with friends and family via the Bryton Active app for added safety during solo rides.

• Auto-Sync: Seamlessly uploads your ride data to the Bryton Active app, which can then automatically push your workouts to Strava, TrainingPeaks, and Komoot.

Technical Specifications

✅ Why This IS For You

• Recreational & Fitness Riders: If you want a simple, reliable device to track your weekend fitness rides without worrying about complex maps or touchscreens.

• Budget-Conscious Cyclists: Perfect for those who need accurate GPS data and long battery life at a fraction of the cost of high-end units.

   

• Commuters: The large screen and smart notification support make it an excellent tool for staying informed while navigating city streets.

❌ Why This May NOT be for you

• Navigation Seekers: This unit does not support turn-by-turn navigation or breadcrumb trails. For mapping, look at the Bryton Rider 460 or Rider 750.

• ANT+ Sensor Users: The 17E is a GPS-only unit and does not support external sensors like heart rate monitors or power meters via ANT+.

• Structured Training: It does not support complex workout syncing or smart trainer control; it is designed for recording outdoor rides rather than indoor training.

BFC Pro Tip

The Rider 17E is impressively light at just 63g. Because it uses a high-contrast segment display (similar to a digital watch), the battery life is incredibly stable—you won't see the sudden drops that color screens sometimes suffer in cold weather. It’s also compatible with standard Garmin-style mounts, so if you already have an out-front mount on your bike, this unit will likely snap right in.
