ROX 4.0
All you need – and more










GPS BIKE COMPUTER WITH ALTITUDE MEASUREMENT
The ROX 4.0 GPS supports you on your bike tour with 30 functions and user-friendly controls, allowing you to focus on what is important: enjoying biking. The extra-large display reliably shows data such as altitude profile, speed, distance, and training time. The ROX 4.0 bike computer also shows navigation information and connection to an e-bike and external sensors as a matter of course!



LARGE DISPLAY
The 2.4-inch-diagonal high-contrast display and extra-large numbers make it easy to read, even during a ride.

Red Circle
The innovative Red Circle on the upper right corner of the display is highlighted in various colours and offers innovative, interesting display of training data.



EVERYTHING AT A GLANCE
The SIGMA RIDE app allows you to set your display view individually. You can set up to six views, each with three values. Current speed and time are shown continuously on the display.

READY TO GO ANY TIME!
The ROX 4.0 bike computer can be positioned directly on the handlebars in a few easy steps –
entirely without cables or sensors. If you want, you can connect your Rox 4.0 to additional
sensors for measuring speed, heart rate, and cadence.
Your ROX uses GPS and GLONASS to determine your position within a few seconds of being switched on.
The user-friendly operation with three buttons enables you to start a bike tour right away.
You can use the SIGMA RIDE app to set your individual display views.

PERFECTLY POSITIONED
The Over Clamp Butler lets you align your ROX bike computer perfectly, even when using a short stem. The computer can be positioned directly over the stem, giving you more space on your handlebars and a clear view of all of your data, no matter what bike you’re riding. The Butler fits on 31.8mm and 35mm diameter handlebars.

THE CLASSIC
The classical SIGMA GPS handlebar bracket can be fixed in place without tools in a few seconds with two cable ties. This gives you a choice between installation on your handlebars or on the stem, and the device fits handlebars of all sizes.
UP WHERE THE AIR IS CLEAR
A true highlight of the ROX 4.0 is the integrated air pressure sensor. It uses barometric readings to determine inclines and declines and provide you with reliable information about altitude, allowing a precise recording of your track. You can also call up a graphical altitude profile on the ROX 4.0. The home altitude at the beginning of the tour is determined automatically from GPS, or you can set altitude manually.



PIONEER
Connect your ROX 4.0 with your komoot app and leave your smart phone in your pocket. Receive turn-by-turn navigation from the komoot app on your ROX 4.0. It can be displayed either as an arrow on the display or inside the Red Circle. This circle on the display is highlighted in red and shows the distance to upcoming turn-offs as coloured bars that get shorter as the turn-offs get nearer. The number of metres to the next turn-off is also displayed next to the circle.


E-BIKE-READY
You ride an e-bike? No problem. The ROX 4.0 is e-bike-ready and can be easily connected to many e-bikes. Your GPS bike computer establishes a connection to the compatible e-bike system and shows you the current assist mode, battery status, and light and other data on the display. You can use this list to find out if your E-BIKE is compatible with the ROX 4.0.


BEST MEASUREMENTS
Do you need more data or even greater accuracy for your values? ANT+ and BLE enable you to connect external sensors such as speed, heart rate, and cadence sensors to your ROX 4.0. You can find accessories sets with various sensors for your ROX in our shop.

FOR DATA COLLECTORS
You can use the SIGMA RIDE app to collect your training data, transfer them to your smart phone via BLE, and quickly set your favourite display views on your smart phone. The most important data and statistics can be read from your smart phone in real time with the SIGMA RIDE app’s LIVE function and assessed conveniently.

-
SIGMA Performance Index (SPI)
The SIGMA Performance Index, or SPI for short, offers you an objective assessment of your training performance. You can find this value for every training unit within the SIGMA RIDE app. The value is made up of 3 different variables:
› The meters in altitude uphill
› The total distance of the training
› The average speedIf these values increase, the SPI also increases. If you look at your SPI values over time, you can see a clear increase, stagnation or performance -recognize deterioration.
The SPI does not consider any individual data such as heart rate or performance. The value is given without a unit and can have values between 1 and 9999, with most values in the range from 1- 600.These examples will give you a feel for the SPI:
The following examples illustrate the meaning and interpretation of the SPI:
› In a cycle race, all athletes drive the same route. The one with the highest SPI wins. The altitude and distance are the same for all athletes, only the highest average speed makes the difference here.
› If you drive the same route with the same average speed but less elevation gain, the SPI will decrease because the elevation gain is taken into account in the calculation
› If two athletes drive the same distance at the same speed, they have the same SPI value, even if heart rate and performance may be different. -
Firmware update
You have the following options to update the firmware of the device:
› Use of the SIGMA RIDE app
› Use of the SIGMA DATA CENTERYou can find out whether a new update is available for your device when you connect the device to the SIGMA RIDE app. If there is new firmware, you will receive a message in
the app and can then transfer it to the ROX 4.0 accordingly.Use the DATA CENTER for faster transmission of the update. There you will also be notified of the updated firmware when you connect the ROX 4.0 to the DATA CENTER.
Once the update has been transferred to the ROX 4.0, you will receive a message on the ROX 4.0. Confirm this if you want to install the update now. Your settings will be retained after the installation.
