“Available at the time of this video launching, the Coros Dura 2 Solar computer offers cyclists a full-featured, high-performance cycling computer with a long battery life and solar charging. In addition to the vastly upgraded hardware, DURA 2 SOLAR brings offline re-routing, routeless climb detection, live tracking, and new cycling focused fitness metrics in the companion app.” – Coros Website

“I have been fortunate enough to have been riding and racing my bike most of my life. I started racing when I was 13, and by the time I was 18 I was traveling around the country racing. As I kept going I was fortunate enough to be sponsored by many different wheel companies, and had a chance to race pretty much every major option out there. I saw what made wheels good, what made them not so good, and what we could do different. In 2009 I was finishing up my final season on a professional team and the timing was perfect to launch this company.”

“This product release builds on the success of COROS’ DURA Cycling Computer and has a completely new look and feel with carbon and anodized aluminum materials and finishes. DURA2 SOLAR will help cyclists across disciplines stay on course, track their training, and connect with their electronic components. The new computer is available either on its own or with either a mount for a traditional round or stem-integrated handlebar.
