The Magene L508 enters a market that was, until very recently, almost entirely dominated by expensive radar units from Garmin and, more recently, Wahoo. To be fair, Bryton offered a few reasonably priced products, but, in the main, the best radar units were considered purchases rather than impulse buys.
Times have changed. Chinese brands, such as Magene and iGPSPORT, have swept the low tide mark below £100/$100, signalling a shift towards greater accessibility for everyday cyclists. It’s a move to be applauded, provided these products prove to be both reliable and accurate.
