· By Press Office · 37 comments

The Year 10 Lezyne GPS computers are packed with new features and exciting innovations. Each computer has been re-designed with not only advanced programming, but enhanced aesthetics. Along with computers, the addition of GPS watches highlights our expanded range.

Lezyne have taken the compact size of our GPS devices and integrated them into a modern, industrial athletic wearable; and the best part is that they have all of the features that our cycling computers possess. Big or small, all of our cycling computers boast excellent value and are loaded with incredible features. Pair one with your smartphone and enjoy turn-by-turn navigation, phone notifications and Lezyne Track (live tracking). Or, turn on the Strava Live Segments feature and go smash your favourite Q/KOM. All units provide the GPS necessities, along with the necessary ability of keeping you connected with your smartphone.

Super GPS

The Super GPS is an advanced cycling computer programmed with the latest technologies and interactive features. At its core, the device offers ultra reliable ride tracking by combining three forms of measurements, which when combined save battery life, track the rider, and measure elevation. Advanced data and training information can be collected when paired to a power meter, heart rate monitor, or a speed/cadence sensor through the device’s Ant+ and/or Bluetooth Smart connections. Furthermore, when paired to an iOS or Android smart phone and the free Lezyne GPS Ally app, the unit offers many more advanced options. The Super GPS can display incoming text messages, emails and phone calls, it uses Strava Live Segments, and employs the industry’s first (true) turn-by-turn navigation. Additionally, the display can be personalized to show just the basics, or all the bells and whistles, with up to five customizable pages to navigate. And its best-in-class battery has a runtime of up to 24 hours.

The Micro C GPS cycling computer has a vibrant color screen to enhance the user experience while offering the same incredible features of the Super GPS. When paired over Bluetooth Smart to an iOS or Android handheld through the free Lezyne Ally app, the device offers turn-by-turn navigation, Strava Live Segments and phone notifications (incoming calls, text messages and emails). Furthermore, the Micro C GPS can simultaneously pair with Ant+ or Bluetooth enabled power meters, heart rate monitors and speed/cadence sensors. In addition to its pairing prowess, the unit’s data-tracking system is incredibly accurate. When recording, the device combines GPS and Glonass satellite data with information from an integrated barometer and accelerometer. At a feathery 29 grams, and a battery that can last up to 14 hours, this is the ultimate GPS computer for the data-driven minimalist.

Any indication on price and availability?

Bought the previous model Mini GPS last month.  Very impressive bit of kit for the price I paid.

Where did you buy and how much was it?

Ya, where can you actually buy these things over here?

I got mine on CWC - they have some units still in the Greenpoint store.  The Sportsman's Warehouse also stocks them in their cycling department.

 

I got mine on a CWC sale for R1350, but the mini is usually R1999.  Mate got the big one at Sportmans for R3200 (more memory, bigger screen, bluetooth with your phone and Ant+)

I picked up a Y10 Super GPS yesterday, for about R2300 at the LBS. No sensors, but I had those already.

 

Probably not the prettiest or slimmest out there, but it is about the same height as my Bryton 20 so same difference to me. The Garmins and Wahoos are just too big a jump in cost, just to have even more features that I'm not going to use anyway.

 

It looks easy enough to use so far. With a firmware update out of the way, it was quick to set up most of the GPS's settings from the app on my phone.

 

I should have time tomorrow to go ride with it, to see how well it performs. Now just to decide what information I want on which page.

The new firmware update has massively improved this device!  The maps are easier to use for navigating now (always facing north was a mission to work out - now they rotate with you) and setup for the data screens using your phone is so much easier and less fiddly than doing it on the unit.

 

Overall I couldn't be happier with my Lezyne GPS.  It does everything that I want it to and the battery lasts a true 24hrs.  It's a great little device.

Anyone used live segments with their Lezyne GPS? 

HdB

Nov 21, 2017, 1:04 PM

I haven't tried the live segments. But currently the app crashes on every ride, for me at least, so I'm assuming it won't work (same as the notifications and live tracking).

Im really battling with mine (Lezyne Super GPS) . It just wont upload a ride via bluetooth . It does manually (which is a pain to do) . I bought this to make it easier , so far not very impressed . I do have the latest fimware

I think the upload problem is with the app, though there are issues with the unit too that I hope they solve at some point in firmware.

I found mention on some other forum that a beta version of the app fixes the crash issue, which will probably fix the live tracking issue I have, and hopefully the automatic syncing. Who knows when that will be released...

Thanks for replying HDB. I found that the gps records the ride fine . Its just when it comes to uploading with bluetooth . The app sees the ride but it says " problem cant upload cant see the gps" or something like that 

HdB

Ah, different issue then. As the app crashes soon after starting the recording, after I stop the ride I have to wait for the app to be closed by the OS, then relaunch the app, and manually upload.

 

Do you use the live tracking feature? I should perhaps test turning it off, to see if the app doesn't crash without it.

 

Other than the current app issues (it worked perfectly a few updates back), and the rather annoying altitude bug, the GPS is great and tracks rides perfectly.

I havent tried the Live Tracking yet . I have a friend that has the previous version (firmware) maybe I must download that and try it ? Does the ally app version 1 not work on these ?

I have not tried it, but I imagine they will stop you from using the incorrect app for your device.

The v2 app is for the newer devices including the Enhanced Super GPS (they refer to them as the Y10 devices), and the version 1 app is for the earlier (y9) devices.

 

I sent their support department a mail about the app issue, IF I get a response I'll update

Thanks . I tried installing the version one and it doesnt work . Lets see if you get an answer 

HdB

Nov 29, 2017, 1:01 PM

An update, kinda.... I received a mail back, asking for information on phone, software version, etc. (all of which I should have included in my original mail, stupid of me)

Only took a week.

HdB

Another little update:

 

You can try uninstalling and re-installing the app. That might remedy it. If you continue to experience an issue, please submit a crash report through the phone when it happens.

                We’ve made some changes to the code for calculating altitude. It should be in our next firmware release.

Since I've already tried re-installing with no luck, I'll just wait for the next app and firmware updates to be released.

Thanks for the heads up guys,

Not something will be buying right now.

Sounds like there are some issues with that device.

Unfortunately yes.

It is SO close to being great, especially frustrating having experienced how well the app worked before.

New firmware is scheduled for release on 15 Dec. Let's hope it fixes current issues, without introducing new ones ;)

solty

Have these issues been resolved?

Thinking of getting one of these and the Live tracking is a major feature for me.

HdB

Jan 9, 2018, 3:50 PM

Nope. The update that was scheduled to be released 15 Dec, has been delayed to somewhere this month. We'll see.

 

Currently I don't even bother connecting my phone prior to a ride - it ALWAYS crashes when I start the ride, so live tracking and notifications don't work.

solty

Jan 9, 2018, 6:57 PM

Eish, that's disappointing.

Thanks for the feedback. Hope a fix comes along.
