Sigma bc 16.12 sts cad bike bicycle computer

I'm looking at buying a bike computer that also displays Cadence ... I don't have a large budget

from what I have researched, the Sigma sport BC16.12 sts CAD wireless gets good reviews[h=1][/h]can anyone recommend a better one for a similar price? (approx £50 .... 75 USD)

I bought one for my wife for her birthday last year. She rides a recumbent trike and there aren't many computers that you can use on a trike if you want cadence. The dual sensor was the main reason that I purchased that model. Since she has had it, it has worked flawlessly. The screen on the computer is very clear and easy to read and the different modes are very easy to get to. The initial setup is also very easy. She really likes hers and has had no complaints. I would certainly recommend it.

That's the one that I use and I really like it. It has been easy to use, reliable and the support staff at sigma are VERY helpful.

The back on the cadence and rpm sensors can be a testimony to my patience. They require a provided two pin tool to remove/install and correct orientation. I broke off a contact installing it but was sent a replacement, so the service was great, but I guess I was a bit dense. I was told that the upcoming model uses a coin rather than the pin tool. (my computer requires a coin) Also the orientation issue has been addressed, so I'm told. Might be worth your while to see if it's out yet. Enjoy!
