Cateye Velo 5 reset mileage
I have a new Velo 5, how do I put the mileage from the old one into the new one?
Re: Cateye Velo 5 reset mileage
I'm not sure you can. That was a common issue with lower-end cycling computers. Really annoying if you bought one to replace a previous unit, or changed the batteries.
Re: Cateye Velo 5 reset mileage
I think you can on the 5. I can't remember how but I remember that when I changed to 7 the shop told me I couldn't input old distance after battery change etc.
All I can suggest is play around with it.

The instructions are available on the cateye site. No idea if you can input your existing milage. Some you can but not all.

At the last count:- Peugeot 531 pro, Dawes Discovery Tandem, Dawes Kingpin X3, Raleigh 20 stowaway X2, 1965 Moulton deluxe, Falcon K2 MTB dropped bar tourer, Rudge Bi frame folder, Longstaff trike conversion on a Giant XTC 840

Thank you all for your input which was most helpful. Unfortunately your are correct, once the battery has been removed and replaced you cannot re-enter or recover the old mileage.
Re: Cateye Velo 5 reset mileage
Wouldn't the mileage reset itself to zero after 9999 anyway?
Re: Cateye Velo 5 reset mileage
Aren't these two different issues... entering a base figure for distance and whether there's nonvolatile memory which allows battery changes?

Re: Cateye Velo 5 reset mileage
I'm surprised by this. Does it not maintain settings during a battery change?

Re: Cateye Velo 5 reset mileage
It doesn't seem to, & there are no instructions on how to enter the mileage, whereas there are for the wheel size & clock.
