For my wife, need to get a cyclocomputer. Ideally wireless with cadence. So far I have been looking at these two:
1. Cateye CC-RD300W
2. Sigma BC1606L cadence DTS Double Wireless
Anyone have any plus/minuses between the two or other suggestions?
Thanks.

i bought the Sigma BC1606L, wired with cadence. it worked fine untill the cadence cable got a snag on it near the base on the stem platform. now cadence doesn't work, speed works just find. pbk has the wireless set, speed and cadence for 28dollars. i'm still on the fence to get a new one cycocomputer or get the wireless from pbk.
i heard wireless has probems with battery drainage and interferce and losing signle.

Which is the wireless with speed and cadence at 28USD? Could not seem to find it. Seems a very good price.

Nashbar has one for $17, which is the cheapest I have ever seen.

Not wireless but still a great price. Is it a known company? I just paid 40$ each for 2 Cateye Strada with cadence.
