Had this about a week and initial thoughts are mixed.The unit itself: Out the box it looks really good, doesn’t look or feel cheap and at this price it shouldn’t. Instructions are really limited so prepare to have to just figure it out. Creating a Sigma account and syncing it up with clunky and awkward, using the app on the phone everything was in German, couldn’t easily see an option to change language or country. Boxes follow a fairly standard approach though so was able to muddle my way through. The difficulty is then logging in on the unit, rather than being able to sync it via Bluetooth and log in from the app you have to connect to WiFi and log in again which is tedious at best with the keyboard.You can’t type quickly like you’re on a small phone and have to make very deliberate actions when typing. Out of the box there was a system and map update which wasn’t unexpected, what was an issue was that whilst it has 6gb built in memory it wouldn’t actually update the firmware or maps till I put an sd card and set that as the default storage. Thankfully I had a spare but if you don’t you will need to add one to the basket! The screen is a decent size and a reasonable resolution, you can make out the map and any stats you have displayed at a glance well. No issues with glare or using with polarised sunglasses so far.Software and features: out of the supported third party services I use strava (Apple Watch) and syncing up to that was relatively easy barring the annoying keyboard issues. Syncing to strava was pretty straight forward and quick, within a few minutes of returning home and connecting to WiFi I could sync the ride data. It can also display segments on the u it but I haven’t had a chance to try this as I have turned off strava syncing. The issue is that I can HR data from the watch and if I use both the sigma and my watch it reads this as 2 people and can’t merge the data. The mapping of my routes so far has been great, accuracy and boot up time is phenomenal compared to previous bike gps units I’ve used. Was a bit of a mare to set up the sport profile with my data and bike info but once done seems fine and setting custom auto laps is really handy. I have mine set for 1 mile intervals and it’s nice to see how I’m keeping pace overall and not just the avg speed.In the box you also get the “butler” which is really handy to mount an action cam to!Overall I think the unit is pretty decent, the UI could be improved. Not sure if it’s the software or hardware that’s limiting the keyboard. It doesn’t meet my expectations and requirements for syncing with strava as I have my watch which gives HR data and I can’t justify investing in a whole other ecosystem with HR monitors etc at this time so I’ll stick with Apple on that side for now. However if I didn’t have that I think going all in with the accessories for the additional data points could be well worth it. As a stand-alone unit for general use on the bike it’s pretty good. It takes a little concentration to use it as a nav as the resolution isn’t huge but then it’s not a phone. And I’d rather have this mounted on my bars to risk dropping etc than my mobile.

I ordered the ROX to help with off road route finding and help with my fitness training.My first impressions of the ROX were that this was one quality product, both from the way it was packaged and from the solid feel of the computer unit.The ROX came with 3 bike mounts. A solid mount that fitted well on my MTB’s oversized carbon bars (shims were provided for other size bars etc) and positioned the computer just in front of my stem. It looked very professional and was a perfect position to be viewed when sitting on the saddle. The other mounts were simpler but still effective designs that clamped via zip ties to either the bar or the stem.I fitted one to my 130mm road bike stem and the computer fitted snugly and looked great.As a mountain biker I was concerned that the mounts would not be up to the rough and tumble of off-road riding and the computer would slip on its mount or be unreadable due to vibration. This was completely unfounded. I have now ridden 350km off road and the computer has remained perfectly positioned and held rigidly secure.The weather on these rides was at times rather wet. Me, the bike and the computer got soaked and completely covered in mud. This has had no effect on the ROX’s performance.Functionality of the computer is excellent. The screen initially looked a bit simplistic when compared with some phone apps but you immediately discover once on the bike the level of detail and sharp resolution of the screen is spot on . It gives clear and precise information at a glance, allowing you to keep your eyes on the trail.Set up was simple and intuitive .The ROX is already set up to link with both Strava and Komoot. I have used strava for years and the link between the ROX and my Strava account was flawless. Downloading data quickly and effortlessly as soon as my phone and the ROX linked up via a WIFI network.I had not used Kamoot before but seeing this function on the ROX I decided to give this a go. Wow, I’d been missing out. Using Kamoot I was able to plan off road adventures using the apps maps and even pick up routes recommended by others. Once I’d made or selected a route I could wirelessly download these to the ROX and follow the clear map based instructions and enjoy a new ride. I particularly liked that when I chose to I parted from the route and the ROX would find me a new way to get back on course .The maps the ROX uses are clear, you can choose a scale of your liking and the ROX automatically zooms in when you approach a junction. it’s a very clear and intuitive system.As well as viewing your route you can look at your ride stats and even just how severe the up coming hill or descent is going to be. Fabulous!I would wholeheartedly recommend this product.

I've had this device for a few weeks now, and used in bright sunshine through to torrential downpour such is our British weather so thought I'd take the time to add a review.I already have Garmin Fenix 5X watch that I use for my running, mountain biking and cycling so was unsure if the investment in a dedicated bike unit was worthwhile. In addition moving to a different ecosystem from Garmin was a concern for me. Thankfully after using this device the decision to use the Sigma Sport ROX 12.0 was a good one.Setup:Within the box there are several mounts which made fitting to my mountain bike and road bike extremely easy, the device didn't take long fully charge for my eagerly anticipated first ride which was a bonus,initial setup was easy enough although the instructions could have been clearer; WiFi connection was really simple and I didn’t have to connect to my PC. I did complete the setup so no real issues other than it took me longer than I'd expected.Pairing with Strava for my results was very simple too so I can still have a single source of training with the use of partner apps on my Garmin.In use:Very simple to power on and start the training session, large screen size so no problems reviewing the map and performance data easily during my rides without stopping. For my initial rides I used both my Garmin and this to compare and the session data seemed consistent and no major deviations so I was happy the accuracy was good enough for me.Plenty of in ride data to use during my training sessions and the GPS received a good signal at all times, even in densely wooded areas this seemed to cope well, possibly better than my Garmin.The map was clear, auto zoom at junctions and with the touch screen zoom at any point I found this super useful, the amount of time saved not having to keep checking my phone was a real bonus. The amount of routes shown and tracking worked perfect and I feel like I've been missing out in this area and questioned myself as to why I hadn't bought a long time ago.It also held up during heavy rain so no issues with the water resistance, in addition the touch screen could still be viewed easily and no issues swiping to review my data or zoom with water on the screen.Post ride from walking in the house the data was synchronised wireless in under a minute and available on my phone which was great. The level of data available both during the ride and to review post ride is comprehensive and had everything I needed to review my session.I've used this device every day and really enjoy using it (which is important for me as it's not just statistics and maps I want). I'm 100% pleased I decided to buy and would definitely recommend it as a great cycling companion.

Lets start with the packaging and unboxing of the product. The packaging is very nicely presented and looks and feels a quality, everything you would expect for the price point. After taking the outer layer of packaging off the box, the interior package splits into 2. One thing to note is to ensure the box is the right way up as when you pull the two halves apart, the cycle computer is sitting lose and will fall out and hit the floor if the box is up side down.Installation of the product was pretty easy, the instructions are minimal as the cycle computer only required an allen key to fit. All in all it took me about 15 minutes to unbox and fit onto the bike.There are multiple positioning options and inserts for different size tubes on the bike frame. After leaving the cycle computer on charge overnight, it was now ready to put to some use.The initial setup of the cycle computer took some time. There was some confusion on how to register on Sigma Cloud. There is an option to do this on the cycle computer but as the screen is small, it can be difficult to hit the correct letters on the keyboard for those with chunky fingers. That being said the screen was very clear and very responsive to touch. I ended up registering an account using my laptop and signing into Sigma Cloud on the device once the account was configured. I also found the Sigma cloud website a bit difficult to navigate, however managed to register an account.I use the cycle computer to record my activity on the bike and set myself training goals. There are nice functions which allow to you set a workout by distance/time amongst other options. I set myself a goal of 30 minutes and set off on my ride. I was pleasantly surprised to see the cycle computer pauses automatically when stopped. The map was pretty accurate and followed by direction efficiently. When cycling I use polarised sun glasses and noticed that I could hardly see the screen with these on, that was a slight issue when trying to watch the map or check the stats.After finishing my ride, I got home and opened the Sigma Link app on my phone to see if my workout would sync. This feature worked really well and my workout had sync'd. All stats were displayed really clearly on the app with lots of detail to drill into.In summary this is a great cycle computer which feels extremely well made and is packed full on functions. I would say this is on the expensive side of the market but provides so many features and so much detail, for those wanting a well made feature packed cycle computer, this is the one to have.

Excellent GPS, very high build quality and intuitive and easy to use software, with many possibilities for interconnectivity. In the box you will find: - GPS - instruction booklet - Micro-USB charging cable - a wrist strap - a butler support (outside the handlebar) - two rubber shims - a handlebar or pipette holder with two clamps to attach it - support for action cam with two longer screws with the typical GoPro mount The materials are of the highest quality, solid and robust plastic construction, very resistant and very pleasant to the touch, while the touch screen is in color and the resolution is average, the interface is essential and very intuitive.The butler attachment positioned next to the stem positions the GPS exactly in the center of the handlebar and allows you to install the GoPro under the device which records the outputs from an ideal angle. perfectly central leaving the handlebar uncluttered and free. The software is very intuitive and offers integration with the Sigma Link app with which you can have training data always available on your phone. GPS is very precise and has an integrated compass that reports changes of direction with great precision. The maps already installed seem updated and it is also possible to draw your own itinerary directly on the touch screen. It allows the combination with the Komoot, Strava, Training Peaks and Dropbox applications, and the customization of the training also with different types of bikes and routes. The only drawback perhaps are the physical buttons that during are not too comfortable to press while pedaling, perhaps a completely touch version would have been better. Ultimately it is a very good GPS, which competes very well with those of the Garmin brand, and a GPS in the end always pays to have it on your bike.

I've come from owning a Garmin 1000, 520 and wahoo. This is better than the Garmin units and marignally better than the Wahoo. But in a different way.If you are heavily invested in the Garmin ecosystem, moving away to another brand without a dedicated smartphone app will seem a stretch. Same for Wahoo. The things is, once you get past the fiddly setup process, you simply don't need an app, everything you need is on the device. It seamlessly syncs with Strava, and allows you to view segments and routes. It also syncs well with Kamoot.The battery life is great easily getting through long days in the saddle but it could use a battery saving mode which you can select when starting a session.Its selling point is its navigation ability.It comes preloaded with streetmaps, and allows you to create a route on the device, simply by wiping your finger across the screen. You can also plan routes in the same way you would with a Sat Nav, using an address or POI. Try by turn and route presence is fantastic and works for cycling whereas other brands don't do so well.When in a sessions, the screen is easy to read, even in sunlight and it is big enough to have multiple metrics on the screen at the same time.It's surprisingly easy to live with, to the point you don't really think about it after a ride or two...and that's the best compliment I can give. It just works and makes your life easier.If you're looking for a top of the range (think garmin 1030 territory) cycling computer which provides flawless navigation on long unfamiliar rides, give this a shot.

If I have to highlight something, it is that the menus are very intuitive. You do not need to read anything, with the small tutorial that appears on the screen the first time you turn it on, you control it and configure everything 100%. Very well the display of the maps, and the speed with which you move the maps is very fast, just touch the touch screen. In addition, you can combine the OSM map on the screen with highly detailed graphics of power, pulse, altimetry, etc. What has caught my attention and is most useful is the function of drawing the layout of a route, with your finger, and quickly calculates it for both road and mtb bikes with spectacular fluidity. And it takes you with turn-by-turn directions.With this function I have already discovered a few corners of my area that I did not know. An interesting option that it has are the hydration and nutrition alerts, every X minutes, or every X calories consumed, and the infinite possibilities that it gives you to configure your screens with the data and graphics that you like to carry. On the other hand, I also highlight the lower anchorage of the advanced bracket (it has two, one advanced for the road and one for the power of the MTB handlebar), because I also use it to carry the gopro, and everything is super integrated. My score ... a 10. Made in Germany, they worked it !!!!

I have been using the ROX 12 for half a year now and I am very enthusiastic about the product. The ROX 12 is used for both racing bikes and mountain bikes / enduro bikes. The ROX 12 is certainly a little more expensive than comparable devices, but it also has more features and has a higher-quality feel. In addition, it is still cheaper than Garmin devices. The handling is very easy. With the fast-reacting touchscreen display and 5 or 6 additional buttons on the device, you can simply click through the menu. The data can also be easily evaluated and tracked using the Sigma Data Center. If you still cannot cope with the operation or want to find out more features about the device,Sigma has plenty of explanatory videos on the homepage. The navigation is awesome, depending on the sport profile, the device offers three possible routes to choose from. On the one hand there is a recommended route, an easy route and a short route. Thanks to the large display and the sound instructions, it is almost impossible to get lost. It is a pity that you can not enter postcodes yet. That would make navigation even easier and more precise. A big plus point is the attachment. At first, I was a little skeptical that the bracket would not withstand the stresses of enduro riding. But even when things get a bit wilder, the Rox 12 holds as it should!

Purchased as a replacement for a garmin that didn't turn on anymore, I chose Sigma because in the past I had had another computer of this brand. Arriving in a few days I immediately mounted it on the bike after recharging it. The first installation is very simple and fast. I immediately connected it to my phone via WiFi and connected to my Strava account in order to view and share the route on social networks. All this happens very quickly and easily thanks to the 3-inch touch display which is very useful especially for maps. To update them it took quite a while, almost an hour. But thanks to the integrated GPS they are very precise. It is very fast in all its functions and in its multilingual menu including Italian.The basic package does not include sensors for cadence and pedaling because I already had those of the garmin which are both ant + and therefore compatible with each other and actually work well. I went out on the bike with the group 6 times already and I am very satisfied with the purchase and recommend it to fans

Amazing road bike gadget!Due to my love for road biking my family decided to get me the SIGMA ROX 12.0 as a birthday present, and I love it! In the past I have often struggled with getting lost on routes or have been a little annoyed at the amount of stops I had to do to read my map, but this is now over! I find that the SIGMA ROX 12.0 is the perfect gadget for any road biker who struggles with reading maps. Before any ride all I have to do now is input my chosen route and then the SIGMA ROX 12.0 will simply navigate me and keep me on track even if I accidentally go off route. The product has shown me new routes and paths that I never before considered taking, so always great fun for exploring and having a change of scenery.I also highly rate the information and statistics that the SIGMA ROX 12.0 gives you post ride, so I can now easily tell if I am improving my speed or stamina. I am very happy with this product as it makes my life a lot easier in terms of map reading and I can’t imagine biking without it anymore.

The ROX 12.0 GPS itself is great and works flawlessly. Great runtime, cool idea to work with different sports profiles and the connection to komoot, Strava & Co. is well done. The coupling to sensors was also flawless and stable. BUT ... the only thing compatible with the Sigma software is Sigma Cloud and Sigma Data Center (MacOS and Win) to manage sports profiles. Sigma Link (version 1.4) on the iPhone does not have a ROX 12.0 GPS. In the Sigma Data Center (MacOS and Windows) no tracks are displayed (and thus are not evaluable). Multiple contact with the Sigma support was rather frustrating. And nothing has happened to this day. Who is not necessarily on the evaluation of tracks (except on the ROX 12.0 GPS itself)is out, for the ideal device. I opted for a point deduction because of the incompatibility with the Sigma software, although according to the website (the ROX 12.0 GPS) the connection should work. By the way, the software website does not show any compatibility with the ROX 12.0 GPS.

this gps has everything i need for my bike outings. It communicates and manages all kinds of ant + sensors, potentiometers ... even with things that you will probably never use, such as electronic changes or e-bike systems. At the viewing level it is very good, better than others that I have seen in my group much more expensive. the maps are osm, perfect for the road, which is what I do. all the graphs, of pulsations, power, altimetry, etc, that can be configured are directly more than what I need, but visually it is very good. but above all I highlight the power of this device :, when you put it to calculate a route to a 1030, the top of the range of the competition, you can have a coffee and return,and with this the calculation (and recalculation, when you are wrong) running) is automatic. here you can see the quality of these Germans. I totally recommend it.

I often go by bicycle, I also use it every day to go to work and on the weekend I travel on average 100 km by road or some off-road trails. The navigator I was looking for had to have both types of track, and sigma has not disappointed me for now. It is true that so far I have remained in Lombardy, I will soon use it on routes in other regions to assess whether they are equally defined. Installing it was easy, it has a pre-set menu which, when switched on, configures it according to the user's needs. The connection via WiFi is very fast, symptom of an excellent quality of the hardware of the appliance. Unfortunately, the heartbeat detector is missing in the package,so the analysis of the calories burned is standardized and not personalized on the detection, honestly at such a price I would have expected to find it already included, which is why I give 4 stars.

I mounted it on my road kuota bike instead of the old sigma rox 10 and connected via wifi to my smartphone quickly and simply by following the instructions on the sigma screen. Honestly I expected a normal cycle computer but this far exceeded my expectations as unlike all the others I have used this one has many specifications such as updated color maps, wifi connection, connections to strava and other apps, the touch screen, the 8gb memory that guarantee excellent pedaling support. And very importantly I'm using the sensors on the wheels of the old sigma and the old garmin. The stem for the handlebar is durable and the elongated shape is very comfortable with a display that reads well while you are pedaling.The maps are clear on the 3-inch display and the touch responds very well. I recommend it to bike lovers like me.

Preliminary note: I am a casual navigator! In use are a Garmin Oregon 400t, a Bosch Nyon and now just a Sigma ROX 12.0. All have advantages and disadvantages. The Garmin is clunky, display no longer state of the art, battery life rather lean. The Bosch Nyon has a great display, knows no Akkusorgen, if connected to the bike. However, the navigation instructions are delayed for certain opposites (satellite reception?). With the Sigma the size of the device convinces the handiness. The display could still be larger, the automatic brightness is often too dark for me. The operation is not trivial, but like almost all, with the use comes only the routine. With Sigma Data Center software you can make settings,fades out. It is working. And last but not least: The navigation meets my expectations!
