The BC 1606L provides a better overview of the essential information during a ride by hiding the total accumulated functions and cadence if not installed. The backlight gives optimal readability of this information even in the dark. An integrated storage chip prevents the loss of set values during battery change as features such trip section counter, timer, and second wheel size are programmable. Cadence is available for both computers optionally. Features current speed, cumulative odometer, trip distance, trip time, KMH/MPH auto conversion and 12/24 hour clock. A cable-connected cadence sensor is available on this model. The improved cable routing (Y-outlet) means that installation is optimal on all stems and handlebar diameters. It provides information on the current and average cadence. If the cadence is not installed on the BC 1606L then the pedal rate display can be turned off.
