Sigma Sport BC 1106 DTS

Price Paid:  $65.00 at lbs

Summary:
It may be a good computer but it's very hard to tell when the manual instructions of how to set it up are different to the buttons on the computer.

Worst instructions ever encountered.

Strengths:
Don't know

Weaknesses:
Manual supplied doesn't make any sense or correlate to the way the computer actually works. Had to basically run a randomised multi variable series of tests before I could work out how to set it

Similar Products Used:

Summary:
I spent 35.00 to have headaches..i am tossing this in the trash I am not even going to try and sell it on ebay all that would do is get me negative feedback.. When you stop if you do not remember to start it, then you wont get all your trip mileage.the instructions are only toilet paper why cant a company as big as sigma write instructions that you can follow. Hard to reset, hard to install, as close to worthless as you can get..don't buy it ..

Strengths:
it will mount on the stem

Weaknesses:
the biggest weakness is that they still make and sell these

Bike Setup:
CF frame w Campy Chorus

Summary:
Seems very temperamental regarding magnet placement on spokes.
Setup per instructions. Computer works fine, then decides to quit. This has happened to me 10 or 15 times in about 250 miles of riding. I stop adjust the magnet, tinker with it a bit and all is well. Magnet does not appear to be moving on the spoke?? I am going to trash the sigma and replace! It’s just too much of a hastle.

Strengths:
Cheap, decent features.

Weaknesses:
Does not appear to be reliable.

Bike Setup:

Summary:
Got one of these on closeout at Nashbar as it was a "team" issue (red). I have had the same computer on another bike and it has behaved flawlessly. The red colored version seems to be easier to read due to its vibrant colored border.

Strengths:
Reliable, nice looking and accurate.

Weaknesses:
It is not wireless but that is no big issue.

Similar Products Used:
Cateye micro wireless (very reliable); Specialized Sport (also reliable); and Polar C100 (great until it just unexplainedly quit one day); same for the Mavic Win-Tech (met a sudden demise!)
