  1. I bought a halfords 12 function cycle computer last Summer and
    unfortunately lost the instructions.

    Does anyone know the wheel setting for a standard mountain bike wheel ?

  2. Try www.halfords.com see if they have the manuals online, or as a file that
    you could download.

    Thanks for replying. Yeah you're right, the size of the wheel is 26inch
    (I checked today) although the number I need to input into the cycle
    computer has four digits.

    I spoke to a bloke down at Halfords last week who told me it was 2085,
    althoug that was wrong.

    You can choose between a "cm" and an "inch" setting, after which you can
    enter a real size. (In my case 211,0 cm). I guess the same applies when you
    want to enter a size in inches. (We live in the metric world, i.e main land
    Europe).
    There is another setting allowing you to choose between a hand full of
    standard settings like 26 or 28 or 29 inch or tyre/wheel sizes like 650C and
    700C etc..

    The guy in the shop may have been referring to a wheel size in millimeters,
    in which case 2,085 meter is about right but.....not a precise as the figure
    suggests.
