The Cycplus M2 is a bike computer with a 2.5-inch round LCD and a battery life of more than 30 hours per charge. It displays ride data, supports GPS, Bluetooth 5.0 and ANT+, and can sync activities with XOSS, Strava and TrainingPeaks.
The M2 brings several improvements over its predecessor, the Cycplus M1. Alongside its unusually shaped display, it offers IPX6 water resistance and support for external sensors.
Dimensions and round display
The device measures 69 × 69 × 22 mm and weighs 68 g. It attaches to the handlebars using the included mount. Its round 2.5-inch LCD provides an overview of ride data while cycling.
The bike computer displays speed, distance, elevation gain and temperature. Cadence and heart rate data are also available to help riders monitor training intensity, but compatible external sensors are needed to measure them.
GPS, sensors and apps
GPS is used to determine location and record rides. Bluetooth 5.0 and ANT+ allow the device to communicate with other devices and sensors. Location accuracy can depend on signal reception conditions.
Activities can be synced with XOSS, Strava and TrainingPeaks. Riders can then review their data, analyze workouts and track progress. The connection process may differ between services.
Water resistance and battery life
The IPX6 rating means the bike computer is protected against powerful water jets, making it suitable for riding in rain. It does not mean the device is protected against immersion.
The battery is rated to last more than 30 hours per charge, which is useful for long training rides and multiday trips. Actual battery life depends on usage conditions. Charging via USB-C takes approximately 3.5 hours.
What's in the box
The bike computer comes with a basic bike mount, spare rubber bands, a USB-C charging cable and an English-language manual. External cadence and heart rate sensors are not included in the listed package contents.
