Which bike speedo?
Northy - 15/9/04 at 09:34 PM

I'd like to fit a bike speedo to my car in my line of sight so I have a slightly better idea of what speed I'm doing!

Can anyone recommend a good one?
Are they available that will measure your 0-60 time?
A clock would be nice so I can see how late for work I am!
And it could do to be cheap.

Also where to buy such brilliant item?

Cheers

I've used the Sigma BC 1200 (www.sigmasport.com).

Quite a few features including Clock, Ride time, Max Speed , etc, but unfortunetly no 0-60 (not sure if needed much using pedal power!) or backlight.

It was quite easy to modify to fit and is available at Halfords at around £12.

Try this link for some details on installing it

Sigma bc1200 or any sigma,these are good for 180mph and are what the motorbike lads use,very accurate and as said already Halfords have recently started selling them.
I,m using a no. plate lamp to illuminate it from the column shroud facing forwards.

Bike speedos are £3.99 in Aldi or about
£15 for ones with a heart rate monitor

The Sigma are well known at a lot of the SVA centres as being accurate,and there are not many other makes as accurate up to 100mph plus.
If they're good enough for the motorbike lads then they should be OK!
Anyway I dont shop in Aldi!!!
