Wired odormeters stink if you travel a lot with your bike. And what is with all this saving every penny possible? People waste electricity every year by keeping lights on needlessly but they don;t want to spend and extra $20 for a wireless odormeter.
Yeah look thats fine, if you want to go wireless I guess its better, I use to have an expensive wireless and my wired one does the exact same thing. Im very happy with it. I just want to give people a heads up that the wired is an easy install and you cant even really notice the wire if your not looking. Its pretty neat, you just twirl it around the break cable. Anyway, still dont know why traveling a lot would have a detrimental effect on a wired speedo.
The Sigma im using is a Sigma BC 8.12. It cost me $21.98 with free post on ebay. Cant go wrong.
