• Wired Transmission: Direct cable link to the wheel sensor guarantees instant data transfer and eliminates battery drain on the sensor side.
• Seven Core Functions: Speed, distance, time, average speed, maximum speed, cadence (if supported), and power‑related metrics when paired with compatible sensors.
• Clear LCD Display: High‑contrast screen readable in all lighting conditions, featuring backlight for low‑light riding.
• Durable Build: Shock‑resistant housing protects against bumps and vibrations during off‑road or urban rides.
• Compact Footprint: Weighing only 0.085 kg, it adds minimal weight to the bike, preserving performance.
• Black Finish: Sleek black color complements any bike frame and offers a classic look.
• Easy Installation: One‑click mounting bracket fits most handlebars; cable routing is straightforward with included guides.
• Long‑Lasting Battery: Internal battery lasts up to 200 hours of continuous use, depending on settings and usage patterns.

Installation Guide

1. Mount the Computer: Attach the mounting bracket to the handlebars using the provided clamp. Ensure a secure fit before proceeding.
2. Connect the Cable: Thread the cable from the computer through the handlebar and into the rear hub where the wheel sensor is installed.
3. Secure the Sensor: Attach the wheel sensor to the rim or hub, aligning it with the cable connector. Tighten gently to avoid damaging the sensor.
4. Power On: Switch on the computer; the display will initialize and begin recording data immediately.

Using the Display

The Sigma BC 7.16 offers intuitive navigation through its button layout:

• Start/Stop Button: Begins or pauses a ride session.
• Mode Button: Cycles through available metrics (speed, distance, time, etc.).
• Reset Button: Clears current session data and starts a new one.

All metrics are displayed in real‑time, allowing the rider to monitor performance instantly. The device also stores ride history internally, which can be accessed later for analysis or sharing with training platforms via USB connection.

Maintenance Tips

• Keep the display and cable clean from dirt and moisture; wipe with a dry cloth after rides.
• Periodically check the cable tension to ensure it remains snug but not overly tight, preventing strain on connectors.
• Replace the battery when the device shows low‑power warnings or performance drops.

Compatibility and Integration

The Sigma BC 7.16 is designed to work seamlessly with standard wheel sensors that transmit via wired cable. It does not require additional accessories for basic operation, making it an ideal choice for riders who prefer a straightforward, low‑maintenance setup.
