Does the 1606L run only one wire to the sensors or two, it is not clear from the specs?
The cadence kit uses a fairly robust round cable, I don't think you can fit cadence on any of the lower models in the current range.
Cateye do some nice looking computers, but I haven't found them to be as robust or as reliable as Sigma.
One of my cycles still has a Sigma BC1100 with cadence which still works perfectly and I fitted that one about 13 years ago (at a guess).
I've found the 1606L does everything I could want and has a back light, it's perfect for me - I hope you find a computer that suits you.
