4 Stars SIGMA BC506 5-Function Wired Bike Speedometer
I just recently purchased the meter and put it on my motorized bike. Some of the meters that I looked at had too many functions or too many that I wasn’t interested in. Five is manageable. I’m mainly interested in the time of day, speed, trip and total miles. I mounted it very close to the center of my handlebars so that I could look at it with little head or eye movement. The type font is large enough for me to see easily. Probably the only negative comment that I have is that the instructions weren’t easy to understand. I like easy because I don’t want to spend a lot of time figuring it out.

5 Stars Beautiful simplicity
Very easy to install and set for wheel size. The reset function is wonderful. Taking the works off for security is a simple twist and it is off. Have not checked it against the odometer in my car but I think it is very accurate. I use it in the auto mode which cycles through the five displays and this suits me best. A great product for the money if you have no need for more functions. The instructions were, again, simple and easily understood by me; not the brightest bulb on the tree for dealing with technology. I don’t know how it will hold up in the long haul because I have not had it long. Also can’t speak for weather resistance and saw no claim for that anyplace on the web.

5 Stars works great
Once you get by the confusing instructions, you have a item that does what it says it does. The 42mm band did break the first day, but you can easily replace it with a rubber band.

5 Stars Cyclometer just what I wanted
I am please with this meter. It is easy to use. (I bought a different model first and sent back as too difficult to work) I am happy with the item and the customer service.

1 Star Died after 3 rides
My Sigma BC 506 inexplicably died in the middle of riding through Central Park NYC. It was the third ride I had used it on. The computer still functioned but it behaved as though the bike was not moving. At home I detached the sensor from the frame and it would intermittently give false readings (like 127 mph) which makes me think that the cable went bad. I installed it as per the instructions and the cable did not at any point experience any unusual amount of strain. Very shoddy construction.

Beyond that, is it so difficult to have two buttons instead of one? It would make using it much more intuitive and would add a trivial amount to the cost of production.
