The Sigma Sports are easy to calibrate.
After entering the basic size for the wheel and using mile markers to calibrate, you can use this formula to get it almost dead on:
True mileage(using mile markers) times wheel setting divided by Sigma Sport indicated mileage.

or Bernie Basels program on this site:

I like having the indicated speed, max speed, additional trip and odometer functions, average time, average speed and trip time.

I have an older BC1400 on my Voyager, and a BC1600 on my KLR. The BC1600 indicates speed in tenths and the 1400 does not. With my Garmin GPSV on the KLR, the speeds are only a couple of tenths apart.

I like being able to leave the cheap Sigma Sport on the bike all the time without worrying about it being stolen. You can remove it real easy also.
