Cateye has partnered with many pro cycling teams over the decades. No race is more visible than the Tour de France, and Cateye released special Padrone Computers with category leader jersey colors to celebrate le tour. Choose from the yellow leader's edition, the polka dot climber's award, or the green of the points leader. No matter which you choose, you will be showing your love the apex cycling race we all know and love.

The Padrone is ideal for the cyclist who requires a simple, but useful wireless bike computer. Not everyone wants advanced data and features, but may be more interested in speed and mileage information that is easy to read and interact with while riding. The Padrone offers Cateye's largest viewing screen and simple ClickTec technology. The viewing screen is substantially larger than the Urban II and Strada computers, two of Cateye's most popular models, yet is slimmer. ClickTec refers to the "button" you use to change the screen, which easily enough, is the screen itself. No fumbling around for a small rubber piece while riding, just press the lower half of the rocker-style screen to change modes. Cateye has been using this system for several years, and the simplicity and reliability it offers are frequently commented on by our customers who use it.

From the serious mountain descender to the all-too-human farsighted cyclist, the Padrone is ideal for anyone who wants to enjoy a squint-free ride and a fast, simple set-up. Cateye provides the extremely versatile and simple flex mount that will attach to every bar and most stems. Due to the universal mount system Cateye uses across the line, you can also opt to purchase extra mounts, even the out-front style that has become commonplace. We favor the K-Edge version for it's strength and reliability (shown in a photo above, but not included with the computer).The head unit clicks securely into place and though easy to release, it cannot happen accidentally. The Padrone leads the pack and will keep you in control at all times whether you are cannily pursuing the GC, attacking every climb, or dominating the sprints. No matter your preference, you can show your colors up front with the Cateye Padrone TdF Computer.
