Rob Date Reviewed: July 8, 2012 Strengths: I guess it would be good - IF I COULD SET ANYTHING. Weaknesses: This did not have any kind of manual, and i have no idea how you could change the settings. Mine one has set button on the back, and 2 buttons for changing 'bike'. Because of I can't change the tire size or anything, this gives me wrong numbers. This one is just 1200, not 1200plus. Exactly same as the picture, but not the plus. Bottom Line:

from Watervliet ny Date Reviewed: March 13, 2012 Strengths: Easy to use. Easy to read when riding. I liked the size of the unit and thought it was a good looking unit. Weaknesses: The tire size chart in the manual was wrong but they provided an updated sheet with the right numbers for the tire sizes. I would have liked a regular on/off switch.

from STRATFORD, CT, USA Date Reviewed: December 24, 2006 Strengths: Setup is pretty good, I agree with other reviewers that the instructions could be better translated; but with a simple computer like this one doesn't need to refer to them once you have the basics. I like the simplicity of the rubber o-rings, granted I'm not thrashing through the woods or careening downhill where they might be alot of harms way but I've never had a problem with them. I tend to like trail riding in the rain, and these haven't fogged up or quit working. Weaknesses: this computer has two buttons, fore and aft of the display area. I sometimes have trouble cycling through the menus to get to the one I want and also resetting the trip time and mileage while I'm riding becuase you have to hold the secondary button in for several seconds to do so. It's probably me, but that's my only complaint. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: none yet Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $25.00 Purchased At: NashBar? Similar Products Used: sigma 800, sigma 1600 Bike Setup: rocky mountain stratos

from Spain Date Reviewed: July 4, 2006 Strengths: Simple to use - simple to set up - clear and legible under any conditions - no fiddling necessary to pull out all useful functions. A great first unit (so I thought) that will not detract from the pleasure of riding. Weaknesses: O-rings to hold the sensor? That's a bit bold (almost lost it on day 1 because of that) Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Anything goes Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $35.00 Purchased At: Mammoth - Madrid Similar Products Used: None Bike Setup: Trek 6700 - stock.

from Fort Smith, AR Date Reviewed: May 15, 2006 Strengths: Easy install. Instructions weren't perfect English but close enough. I bought the wireless model - didn't take a lot of fiddling to get things working. Weaknesses: Mounts to bike with rubber gasket or rubber-band type things. Looks cheap but does the job & should be easy to replace if necessary.

from Surrey Hills - UK Date Reviewed: March 11, 2006 Strengths: Sigma make the most advanced, affordable cycle computers I have ever owned. In the last 20 years I have used Avocet, Cateye, VDO, Specialized, wired and wireless. I was so impressed I have three of them, all RDS wirelss. MTB, Road + 1600 Cadence on my trainer. All are still on the original long life CR2023 cells. I particularly like the dual read out with an indicator tp show if you are + or _ average speed. Great for enduro's or 12 hour races. 2 tyre sizes can be stored for summer + winter. At last the ability to manually set the Total distance of the Odometer (so when the battery does need to be swapped you can punch in your lifetime mileage ... sweeet. No tools required, screwless design is fitted to fork and bars with large O rings Tip+ Put a small dab of BP petroluem jelly on both terminals of the head unit and you could ride under water. No probs even in the worst driving rain. Tip* Take the head unit off the bike when not in use which seems to prolong the Cell life. Tip# The EMF from bar mount HID lights interfere with Wireless reciever. Follow these tips and Sigma will NOT let you newbies down. That's a promise ... Weaknesses: Buttons can be a bit sticky + fiddly at speed.
