Hammerhead Karoo 2 review: Full-featured GPS bike computer that keeps getting better

The Hammerhead Karoo 2 offers pretty much everything you could need from a GPS cycling computer

Simple to set up ; Intuitive touch screen interface ; Climb feature is excellent ; Will keep improving as more features are added

Some of the display choices are restrictive ; Fewer third-party app integrations than other devices

An excellent, full-featured head unit, the Hammerhead Karoo 2 has pretty much everything most cyclists could need. It's intuitive to use, while its new climber feature sets it apart from other devices on the market.

Hammerhead Karoo 2 review: phone-friendly ride tracking

An Android-based bike computer with a hi-res screen, the Hammerhead Karoo 2 is aiming for the front of the pack

Software is extensive yet delightfully simple to use ; High resolution display looks superb ; Lots of on-device customisation

Battery life a step behind the compeitition ; Post-ride analysis could be better

A compact and capable bike computer with a fantastic screen, fast interface and clever on-the-fly climb profiles. Just don’t expect great battery life.
