CHANGING THE BATTERY
SpeedZone Cycle Computers are powered by a CR2032 3v Lithium Battery. Under normal
conditions, battery life should be approximately one year.
INSTALLING OR REPLACING THE COMPUTER BATTERY
1. Using a coin or flathead screwdriver, turn the battery door counter clockwise and
remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Carefully remove the old battery. Take care not to damage the O-ring seal.
3. Place a new battery in the battery compartment with the positive (+) side facing the
battery compartment door. CAUTION: Do not bend the battery contact.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and tighten clockwise with a coin or flathead
screwdriver.
NOTE: If the O-ring is damaged, replace it before installing the battery compartment cover.
CAUTION: Extreme care should be taken to ensure the unit is fully water-resistant. Failure to properly replace the
battery and correctly seal the battery compartment cover may cause the unit to be damaged and void the
warranty.
ALWAYS: Check the batteries if you are experiencing problems with your computer. Most problems with the operation
of this unit are the result of dead or dying batteries.

INSTALLING THE HANDLE BAR BRACKET
SpeedZone computers give you the option of mounting the computer in-line with your stem.
This option is ideal for aero bars or to keep a visually balanced look to the handlebars.
1. Remove the bicycles’ steering column stem cap.
NOTE: It is not necessary to loosen the stem.
2. Install the Specialized steering column mount ring, with computer mount ON TOP of the
stem or any spacers present so that it partially overlaps the top of the steerer tube.
NOTE: It is important the stem mount ring be the last item mounted before the steering
column stem cap.
3. Rotate and align the steering column mount ring, with computer mount so it is parallel to
your stem extension.
4. Reinstall the bicycles’ steering column stem cap and tighten to manufacturer’s
specification.
IMPORTANT: The Specialized steerer tube mount may not work properly with some high-rise
stems. In the case of high-rise stems, the steerer tube (and spacers) must extend
beyond the stem enough to allow proper clearance of mounting bracket.
INSTALLING THE STEERING COLUMN BRACKET
On bikes with high-rise stems or threaded headsets, SpeedZone computers give you the
option of mounting the computer on your handle bars..
1. Remove the computer mount from the steering column mount using a 3mm hex wrench.
2. Install the molded rubber shim for 31.8mm handlebars and thread the included two (2)
zip-ties through the handlebar mount and molded rubber shim.
3. Loosely install the mount and shim assembly (for 25.4mm and 26.0mm handlebars, use
the additional flat rubber spacer underneath the molded rubber shim) and install to the
preferred handlebar location.
4. Rotate the zip-tie heads so they nest under the front of the mount, adjust the position as
necessary and tighten the zip-ties.
5. Trim the excess zip-ties for a finished appearance.

SPEEDZONE ELITE
On the SpeedZone Elite, both speed and cadence are picked up from the rear wheel using a special bracket, which has
two sensors at the end of a long wire. One sensor picks up speed and distance information from the rear wheel and the
other picks up cadence information from the crank. The cadence sensor is marked with a C.
1. Attach the cadence sensor to the LEFT chain stay near where the crank/pedal pass the stay using the zip-ties
provided. Do not fully tighten zip-ties.
NOTE: The wires exiting the sensors should be pointing toward the front of the bike.
2. Attach the cadence magnet to the back side of the LEFT crank arm using the zip-tie provided.
3. Align the cadence sensor and magnet and rotate the sensor so the magnet passes within 1-3mm.
4. To position the speed sensor, wrap the speed sensor wire once or twice around the chainstay and attach using zip-
ties. DO NOT fully tighten the zip-ties until everything is aligned.
INSTALLING THE SPEED & CADENCE SENSOR INSTALLING THE SPEED & CADENCE SENSOR
5. Attach the spoke magnet to a spoke on the left side of the wheel. Tighten the attachment screw just enough to hold
the magnet in place but loose enough so that it is still movable.
6. Adjust the position of the sensor and magnet so they are in proper alignment as shown in the drawing. Tighten the
zip-ties and magnet.
7. Route the sensor wire forward and under the bottom bracket and along the bottom of the down tube securing it
occasionally with tape. Once you are near the head tube the sensor wire should be wrapped around the front or rear
derailleur cable housing and the around the front brake cable housing.
CAUTION: Make sure you leave enough slack in the sensor wire so the handle bars can turn fully from side to side.
8. Attach the bracket to the handlebars or stem.

INSTALLING THE SPEED & CADENCE SENSOR INSTALLING THE SPEED & CADENCE SENSOR
SPEEDZONE COMP - WIRELESS SPEED SENSOR
INSTALLATION
1. Pass the two cable ties through the sensor mounting holes and loosely mount to the left fork
leg using the rubber sensor mounting pad (do not fully tighten the cable ties at this point). The
sensor should be mounted as close to the top of the fork as possible with the cap of the battery
door toward the ground. Make sure that the distance between the sensor and the handlebars is
no more than 24 in. (610mm).
2. Loosely install the sensor magnet to one of the spokes of the front wheel. Adjust the position
of the magnet and sensor together so that the magnet is aligned with the line on the bottom
edge of the sensor and 1-2 mm separates the two parts and tighten both parts in place. DO NOT
over-tighten the magnet screw.

(CADENCE HARNESS AVAILABLE SEPARATELY)
1. Attach the cadence sensor to the LEFT chain stay near where the crank/pedal pass the
stay using the zip-ties provided. Do not fully tighten zip-ties. (see illustration on page 8)
NOTE: The wires exiting the sensors should be pointing toward the front of the bike.
2. Attach the cadence magnet to the back side of the LEFT crank arm using the zip-tie
provided.
3. Align the cadence sensor and magnet and rotate the sensor so the magnet passes within
1-3mm.
4. Route the sensor wire forward and under the bottom bracket and along the bottom of the

TROUBLESHOOTING
DISPLAY IS BLANK: Change the battery or reset the
computer (see page 15).
DISPLAY SHOWS PARTIAL DIGITS: Reset the computer.
SPEED/DISTANCE NOT RECORDING: Check sensor/mag-
net alignment. Make sure that the sensor is no more than
1/16" (2mm) from the magnet.
ENTIRE SCREEN IS DARK: Did you have the bike parked in
the hot direct sun when it was parked? If so, move the bike
to the shade. The data will be OK.
COMPUTER MOVES ON HANDLEBAR: Tighten tie straps or
add sizing straps to improve fit on handlebar.
