New Cycliq Fly 12 out

she…just has the camera on the handlebars and then a bag taking it to the lockers at work, the lens cover is plastic it scratches stupidly easily, like a grain of sand or mud will mark it, which is why Cycliq now offer lens protection accessories as a side line, instead of using gorilla glass or whatever GoPro uses

Battery life.

Battery life.
GPS eats batteries – its one of the reasons the GPS version of Go-Pro has a shockingly poor battery life.
The GPS inside your watch isn’t active all the time; it’s only really active  when you start an activity. Then watch the battery life drop …

Agreed, they already have Varia front lights, and previously dabbled with action cams with the VIRB range. I’d be interested in a relaunched camera with built in light. 

Can anyone help with discount

Can anyone help with discount codes and similar?

£432 for the pair is a bit of a stretch. That’s not much less than the £650 full price I spent on the basic bike, which then came down to under £500 with Halfords wonderful discount stacking computer.

Though I see that Cycliq have a 10% off first purchase thing.

Thanks, but I require a

Thanks, but I require a single device and I’m mainly after GPS ‘absolute time’. I can film a Rugby-connected radio clock mounted on the bike for over a minute at silicon clock driven 50 fps, and watch the minutes change over exactly synchronously (GoPro software does not display GPS seconds), then switch off the camera for about 57 minutes and restart it and the hour will change over exactly synchronously or only 1 frame (20 milliseconds) out- that will be the GoPro’s fault. Network time on the phone is nearly as good, but thit will be the phone’s fault

Removal of Ant+ light support

Removal of Ant+ light support is a pro from my POV. Their implementation on the older models didn’t seem to work very well, leading to unpleasant behaviours like the light turning off while you were riding along. I switched off ANT+ on mine pretty quickly after purchase and have enjoyed using the light much more since then.
