The Sigma Sport BC1606 is a 18 function computers with backlight and can use dual wireless, one is for the speed and one is for the cadence... I bought mine for PHP 1500 and I sell it to Pazigrider... but the wireless mount is not included for that price ...

i had the topeak panoram v12 mini installed early this month. i like the mini version because its only the same width as the stem's diameter and its cantilevered mounted on the handlebar so its aligned to the centerline of the stem too. i like my handlebar clean so i can vary the way i grab it to avoid hand fatigue on long rides. the functions are very simple and easy to set up too. the only problem i had was that the supplied zip ties were a bit short for my fork, so i had to use two ties for each slot on the sensor

I don't have a Topeak but this is just a suggestion - have you tried checking the battery? Display going haywire is a sign of the battery getting weak I think.

i had a planet bike computer for a very short time last year. it popped off the mount going downhill fast from roxas to timberland and got lost. i liked it because there was a lot of info on the screen and you only had to push the whole unit instead of pressing a button to change the display which is easier when you're wearing gloves. they're pretty cheap too. only around P700-1000 more or less depending on the model. anyone using planet bike computers? reviews please.. thanx

Mga Idols, I just bought a Cateye micro wireless 10 functions and 12 features. It looks cool, but from the manual it said that the magnet should not be installed more than 5mm away from the sensor, I am wondering if the front tire suddenly wobbles and the magnet hit the sensor physicaly.
I will install it on Saturday and post here the result.

gosho... its a standard sir to almost all cyclocomp 5mm away... just an advice... to avoid wobbling secure your wheelset from the fork very well... you might be very lucky if it only damages that magnet or sensor, what else if the wheelset disengaged from your fork... costly.... i bought an old school velo7 at a very reasonable price... 480 bucks brand new... hihi

Waaa!! I felt I was rob I got my micro wireless for Php1800. I thought this is already a good buy since a cat eye cord less 5 funtions and seven features is already P2400 at storeshop in parksquare 1. I couldn't believed that there is a wire less that cost less than 500 bucks, you are so mean Nhan. joke... nice buy brad, ride on

mine's only a Velo 5, but works great! i dont know any function which i would ever need that is not in there. entry-level it is, with a wire, but is very reliable i got discouraged with wireless when i try to ring my cellphone near one, it didnt work. so wired and cheap for me

I already not happy for the cordless cycle computer. I have the Sigma PC1600 cordless and the panoram soloflight cordless. it's only good when it's still new. but after a few months using it, the reading is already intermitent or not functioning at all...share your experience with your cordless. Maybe we have the same experience too... So, I back to basic, using the wired cycle computer...
