It's a pity cause the Leikr would have some capabilities. But they never were able to exhaust the Leikr to these capabilities.

I, finally, give up with LEIKR after 3.5 years of good will and 5 different units.
I bought my LEIKR in February 2013 and then started to use it straight forward.
At the beginning I experimented troubles (Mainly software’s’) but updates were quite quick and it was the journey start for the company.
I tried to give feedback as much as I can in order to (I hoped) point in the users wish direction.
It was quite irritating to have so many bugs but the worst was the battery life.
Therefore after few bugs and, finally a frozen device I got my first change.
Sadly problems continued with same issues and new ones (HRM rejected by the watch), very slow GPS acquisition………
Despite a forum not that active, I had few answers by writing directly to LEIKR. In fact to have a proper answer it was the most efficient way: Writing to both LEIKR by email and letting the same post on the forum. Generally answer popped up within a week.
Software issues still being ….. an issue, I then got my second replacement watch…….followed few months later by the 3rd one.
For the 4th replacement it was a casing issue: it cracked and split in two. But software was still unstable and I still got the HRM rejected from time to time. Battery life did not improved a lot and GPS fix could still take up to 15 minutes being stand still with a beautiful bleu sky……
During that time the forum was slowly dying and answers to my emails needed to get more and more reminder (s).
It still have the same software problems. Peoples at LEIKER asked me not to give up on them 6 months ago but during that time I got two replacement devices without any improvement.
I was, candidly expecting a happy ending but it seems that LEIKR is definitively dead.
For the past year I was, when asked, still objectively answering but now I do not recommend to anybody to go for such a device that seems to have no future anymore.

As for strava I'll re-add my Strava account over the weekend and see if it syncs, then report back.

I'm finding the watch having more trouble finding less gps satellites 4 now as opposed to the 9 it found in the same area, faster, prior to the update.
Mapmyfitness doesn't appear to sync anymore but that might be my account need to check that.
Battery life is nuked a heap faster ( believe because the watch is working harder to find gps maybe?)
Will keep using and testing but that's from 2 rides so far.
Still happy it's being worked on and I'm not sure what the leikr team have updated in the past update (assume security and strava sync? [haven't tested that again since it broke a while ago])

No idea what it does hope to have some time to dig through the menus and see what's new. I've just ridden to work on the old firmware so will test the new firmware on the ride home tonight.
cool stuff

Does anyone has a spare docking station by chance?
My seems to have broken (one of the contacts doesn't return to original position, leikr is not charging up and can't be detected by computer).
I don't have any tools to repair it myself.
I saw that previously it was in the shop, but 60+$ (40+20) for an usb cable with docking station is a bit expensive from my point of view.
So, if anybody has a spare docking station, I wish to buy it for a reasonable price.
