An analog mosquito flies into the net

Bike computers usually impress with their plastic and lack of analog aura. A Swiss development puts an end to this, as the "Moskito" bike computer looks like a wristwatch but cuts a fine figure on the stem.

"During my work as a frame builder, I was always looking for a suitable bike computer for my customers. Because the search came to nothing, I started developing the Moskito Watch three years ago," says Beat Baumgartner, patron of frame builder Bedovelo and the driving force behind the new stem cuddle piece.

After three years of development, the first prototype of the Moskito Watch is ready. The result is an analog smartwatch that can be used both as a wristwatch and as a speedometer on the bike. With a simple twist lock, the smart wristwatch with a classic design becomes a speedometer that displays the speed, distance and average speed on the bike. The watch can also display messages from your smartphone, e.g. WhatsApp, calls, text messages or emails. There are also other functions, more information and the possibility of funding can be found on the Kickstarter page.www.moskitowatch.com
