Sigma ROX 8.0

Sigma cycle computers are well know for their reliability and the ROX 8.0 is no exception...but this isn't the only reason you would buy one. The ROX 8.0 with wireless speed, cadence and heart rate, has more features and information than most of us will ever need but don't let that stop you from reading on.... There are things about the bicycle computer that make it pretty much perfect for any cyclist.

The Sigma ROX 8.0 is a bike computer designed as a one computer for all cyclists. On the surface (or Display) you have all the information you would generally want to know when you are riding along without having to press a button which is verys cool. The screen is large enough to display 7 functions including speed, cadence and heart rate without looking big and ugly! This is very handy for those of us (like me) who hate having to scroll through the funciton buttons searching for general information. If you like all the technical stuff, just start pressing buttons and you have more than 40 functions at your disposal. Then, when you get back from your ride, plug the ROX 8.0 into your computer and you can upload all of your ride date onto your computer. You can then produce graphs, and compare different rides all on the one screen to maximize your training goals.

It may sound scary, and difficult to use, but the Sigma ROX 8.0 is easier to use than the latest Garmin computer... It's so easy, even my 55 year old Mum can manage it!!
