In the final instalment of these daily #Festive500 vlogs I cover off a few things about the Hammerhead Karoo 2 (and original Karoo) that are positives and a few notable shortfalls of the much hyped ‘next generation’ cycling GPS computer. It’s Day 8 and into bonus kms today as I head out for an evening gravel ride with Dr Stephen Lane!
Short Notes:
– The Karoo units have a mobile phone like touchscreen / UI. ✅
– Karoo units are configured all on the device. No companion app. ✅
– Very basic web dashboard lacking analytics and tracking. ❌
– No gear shifting recorded (rendering SRAM AXS Web / Di2 Stats useless) ❌
– No ANT+ Cycling Dynamics support. ❌
– No TyreWiz support. ❌
– No CORE Body Temperature sensor support. ❌
– All of the above CAN be resolved in firmware/software. Let’s hope they are! ✅
