About Cycle Computers

Cycle computers help you make the most of your time on the bike and are a great training tool, they have many functions including speed, distance, maximum speed, average speed and some even feature cadence (pedal revolutions). Trying to keep your average speed a bit higher or finish a familiar route in a new record time will give you the inspiration needed to push harder, get fitter and achieve that goal. If you commute on the same route every day, a computer injects a bit of interest. Cordless computers are easier to fit and look neater on the bike, meaning no messy cables to try and tidy up. If you're serious about improving your fitness, a computer with a cadence function will really help and these often read from the rear wheel, allowing them to be used with a turbo trainer.

Sigma Sport BC1609 SC Wireless Cycle Computer with Cadence 3.9 5 9 9

Good for the price only issue is the fitting of the cadence sensor as it is hard to ensure the sensor and reaciver allign. apart from that great :) 22 October 2012

Bought mainly for Cadence. I purchased this as my existing Cycle Computer did not have a Cadence function- though it had almost everything else on one screen. Before installing the Sigma I read pretty much everything I could find -and believe me you need to as the manual is tiny and not easy to follow. Anyhow, installation was reasonably straight forward: set-up wasn't too bad and placing the components was Ok because you can use the provided o-rings to test various positions before committing to the also provided cable ties for more permanent placement. At first the Cadence feature did not seem to work- but it seems you have to give it a fair number of revolutions before it registers. The Speed Sensor seemed fine from the outset. Because I already had a computer on the front wheel I installed the Sigma Speed Sensor next to the Cadence Sensor on the rear chain stay. (This was still within Sigmas recommended distance range#. I had also read that some LED lights interfere with the sensors- maybe being further away will make a difference?? The shape of the Speed Sensor meant that it didn't fit quite as well as the Cadence Senor on the chain stay, so I packed out the inside of the chain stay with 4 pieces of rubber tape on top of each other and the same length as the Speed sensor before fixing with cable ties. The Cadence Sensor magnet was fairly bulky, so instead of using this I used 2 rare earth magnets, which hold themselves magnetically to the bikes pedal axle and are very discrete. Before setting the Wheel Size I checked Sigmas table and was surprised to see that the stated circumference was considerably different to the one in my old Computer's table -and from what I thought I remembered. So I re-measured my wheel circumference. To do this I checked tyre inflation, put a small dab of white paint on the top of the front wheel and ran the wheel across the garage floor till I had 2 white spots. Then I measured the distance from dot start to dot start and found Sigma's table did not match the measured distance. So I entered my tyre size in the settings. The 1609 STS has nice big numbers, BUT Speed is always displayed #with an Up or Down arrow- meaning above or below Average Speed) plus one other function which you can select "on the fly". That's it! You can scroll through the other functions, but can't see them simultaneously. However the many functions are all there and if you prefer an un-cluttered look this will suit you. I would have preferred a scan function to roll through the functions every few seconds- but that's me. So at the moment I have 2 computers on-board which looks pretty nerdy, I guess- but I'm happy. Once I'm totally familiar with the 1609 I plan to get rid of the old one. BTW on my test run of about 20 minutes everything worked fine with no interference. The read-outs of the 2 computers were almost identical. I read somewhere that re-setting has to be done one feature at a time- this is incorrect, you simply hold the Reset button until Reset all? appears. Changing the Sensor batteries requires a special 2 pronged tool which is provided but the computer needs only a coin! Note to self- "Don't lose tool" 21 September 2012

A valuable basic cycle computer A valuable basic cycle computer. With this budget, you can have speed and cadence monitoring. 25 June 2012

Neat function bike computer. I wanted a simple computer for my tri bike that gave me speed, cadence, trip time and distance. This computer does that all simply and reliably. Firstly the Sigma website has a great demo tool so you can have a look at the functions. It took no time to set up but I remember the manual being a bit hard to follow because it didn't group all the English stuff together. On bike it is very easy to use. I normally race with speed and cadence displayed. One press and you can get to distance, one press back to cadence, a few more presses and you get all the other stuff I don't use. Reset is one hold one button. I have had the usual problems with magnets and sensors but the wireless appears to work well and updates quick enough. The numbers are clear and easy to read. This is the perfect computer for someone who just needs the basics done very well. 22 January 2012

Does it mount on the stem or bars?

Answer:

mounts either way. There are 4 small philips screws on the backing plate which you can undo and rotate 90 degrees and then replace. So the mounting plate with the included cable ties can attach to either stem or bars of almost any diameter.

Answer:

No. Current Speed is always displayed (with an Up/Down arrow meaning above or below average speed), plus one other function at a time. You can scroll through these simply by pushing the appropriate button.

CASTLE HILL.

Answer:

No, only two parameters and speed is always the majority.

Either, speed with cadence.
Or, speed with distance.

Or even, speed with max. speed / average speed / trip distance / trip time
