The Garmin Varia has set the benchmark for cycling radar performance since 2015, so when CYCPLUS launched the L7 radar at half the price, I was keen to test it. After a cancelled order, and giving CYCPLUS more than a year to address any early issues, I have finally put the L7 through my radar test protocol - solo and side-by-side with the Varia RTL515 on real roads with known radar trouble spots. In this video, I break down how the L7 performed, and dig into all the data where it falls short. If you're considering this as a budget radar option, the savings comes at a cost.
