Review on 🚴 Sigma BC 16.16 STS Wireless Cycling Computer by Kevin Zamora

This is another great wireless cycle computer in the 2016 Sigma Topline range. I bought it as a second recumbent because it was in an open box for about $25. With the Sigma Data Center app, I can transfer travel data to my Android phone via NFC when I'm on the road. It later appears in the Sigma Data Center app on my Windows desktop. The data center stores tabs (distance, average pace and total ascents) for each ride and then presents me with weekly, monthly and yearly charts. And the BC 16.16 STS, like the BC 14.16 on my other bike, counts distance, total ride time, and total climb. This BC 16.16 is specially designed for commuters. It gives you an Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) along with carbon savings estimates. After entering a custom wheel size setting, I found that my BC 16.16 mile tracking error was less than 1/100th of a mile. I had no issues with wheel signals and/or crank sensors going to my handlebar mounted head. block even though I'm riding on my knees and leaning forward. I just flipped the crank feed unit, front to back. I've had no issues with the pedal-mounted cadence magnet either, although it doesn't have a mount: you just place it on the end of the pedal shaft (it should be steel) and a powerful magnet will hold it in place. I found that the mounting screw, which allows the cadence sensor to rotate for the best magnet spacing, was the weak link in the overall design: it broke, and I had to improvise a custom mount out of a thin strip of aluminum.
