ELEMNT MINI Bike Computer

The ELEMNT MINI is the latest in the series of Wahoo cycling computers. This streamlined design enables you to measure speed, distance, cadence, heart rate and connects to your smartphone for enhanced features such as call and text notifications and live tracking.

The ELEMNT MINI package includes a Wahoo RPM SPEED Sensor and is engineered to be used with the ELEMNT App. Our free app allows you to customize your ELEMNT MINI screens, track your past rides, authorize 3rd party workout sites for your workouts to be automatically uploaded post ride and, if utilized during a ride, will record your workout in real time. If you choose not to utilize the app during the workout, the ELEMNT MINI saves your ride and uploads summary information via Bluetooth to the app when your workout is complete.

You do not need to have your smartphone to use the ELEMNT MINI. The app is only necessary to utilize enhanced features such as Live Tracking and Full Ride GPS workout data.

Attaching your ELEMNT MINI to your Bike:

You should be able to read Wahoo while seated in the saddle. To operate the mount, place the ELEMNT MINI into the mount and twist to secure in place. To remove, twist firmly in the opposite direction and lift to remove from the mount.

The RPM SPEED arrives ready to fit to the hub of either wheel as per your preference.
