SIGMA BC1606L DTS Wireless Bicycle Speedometer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This computer has everything a cyclist needs. Wiresless speed and cadence!
You will love the large displays that says "Trip Time" or "MAX SPD" instead of the tiny little letters that the Cateye computers uses like "tr" or "mx".
The design is very intuitive and you will be an expert using this computer in no time. It's very accurate and there are no dropouts with interference due to it's digital link. Ive compared with my handheld GPS over a 20 mile ride, and the results were within .01 miles of each other.
The speed display though, only shows speed in increments of .5 mph, so you will get 25.5mph instead of 25.7mph. Not a big deal to me, but some people might like more info.
I had a trouble with the computer coming off a little too easy, and I called customer support. Their customer service was responsive, nice and quick.
Lastly, the price of this bike computer is much cheaper than the competition taking into consideration it has wireless cadence/speed and a backlight. I also love the fact that is has Average Cadence, stop watch, and total riding time.

Sigma's BC 1606L DTS is the top model for the most demanding of riders, even at night. The BC 1606L DTS wireless succeeds in this not only by providing a better overview of the essential information during a ride by hiding the total accumulated functions and cadence if not installed, but through its backlit readout that delivers optimal readability of information even in the dark. In addition, an integrated storage chip prevents the loss of set values during battery change as features such trip section counter, timer, and second wheel size are programmable. Cadence is available for both computers optionally. The set is equipped with a digital radio sensor. The receiver is integrated into the bike computer. A wireless cadence set is available as an option.
Digital Transmission System (DTS) Explained With 2-channel radio transmission (km/h and pedal frequency) and 100% digital encoding without data loss, the DTS system guarantees 100% data security of current speed and pedal frequency values during wireless reception. It does this by calculating all relevant data, encoding it and transmitting it in data packets to the integrated receiver in the bike computer. Disturbances such as power lines or mobile phones are no longer a problem as transmission is carried out over the so-called low frequency. A double security system also ensures that only the data packets from your own transmitter are evaluated by the receiver. This means that group rides are no problem.
A further security measure is redundant data transmission so that no data can be lost. The size and quality of the receiver has also been optimized by a specially developed Sigma chip (ASIC) and integrated into the bike computer which also saves on battery life.
