Review SIGMA BC506 5-Function Topline Wired Bicycle Speedometer

March 7, 2010

SIGMA BC506 5-Function Topline Wired Bicycle Speedometer Best Review

I had an earlier version from Sigma that I bought for my bike about 8 years ago and it is still working fine even with a few scratches. I needed to buy one for my wife’s bike and got this one. Now I want one for me but can’s really justify it because mine still works. This does all you need for the average biker and more. Distance traveled, time it took, the time of day and how fast you are going is all you really need. It doesn’t cost that much and it pays to have one to excercise correctly. My wife and I travel certain distances and have been working our way up. It was easy to install and a quality product.

Magnet/Pickup gap way too small – D. Orders –
This is a nice little computer but the less than 5 mm gap required between the magnet and pickup is ridiculously small. That’s about the thickness of of a stack of 3 pennies! When I mounted the magnet at the rim of my wheel as shown in the instructions, the gap between the magnet an sensor was nearly 3 cm, or 6 time too large! I was able to achieve the 5 mm gap by mounting the magnet about halfway down a spoke, but I’m concerned that it will work its way up the spoke over time. At least the wire was long enough. Why not make the magnet a little stronger so that you could have a more reasonable gap?

bc 506 bike computer terrible to mount – David –
The computer itself is nice but it is just impossible to mount so to respect the 5mm max gap between sensor and magnet with the provided instructions and material.
The spring fork on a mountain bike is just to far from the spokes.
Waisted my money.

Not able to track speed – N. Ganesh – CA, US
Not sure if this is an issue with the unit, or the installation or if this doesn’t work my roadbike. I believe I did the installation correct inline with the instructions. However, other time, none of the other functions are working well. It looks the magnet is not sensing either it is not good or the gap is too big because of the size of the wheel. If you know the answer, please let me know.
