BTW: The best way to set the computer is with a roll-out measurement. Inflate the tires to the proper pressure; place the valve stem at the 6 0'clock position; mark the sidewalk with a piece of chalk or something; sit on the seat; and roll one revolution to where the valve stem in back at the 6 o'clock position; then mark it. Next measure the distance between the two marks with a tape measure. Most have CM on them. Enter that into the bike computer. If the computer takes MM just multiply the CMs by 10. Much more accurate.
Yeah, that's what I usually do, but I don't usually sit on the bike. I changed the battery in computer, and I guess it reset.
