Unless you’re in a cyclocross race and expecting to change your bike multiple times during, a handlebar-mounted bike computer will almost always be a better choice for recording bike rides than a wristwatch. Indeed, for me, I have used the Coros Pace 3 smartwatch more often for running and swimming than I have for cycling.
However, this review isn’t about the general merits of using a smartwatch for cycling, it’s about how this specific watch performed: in short it’s done very well across a range of activities.
