I have a problem with my AVOCET 30 computer. I have lost the manual
which contains the calibration formula for the computer and as a result
cannot measure accurately my meagre mileage. :-)
Does anyone have the formula used to generate the computer number ? I'd
prefer the one that is calculated in miles.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Andy

The formula for miles is:
Rolling Circumference in Inches x 2.7273. Round the product to the
nearest whole number.
The table included in the manual is:
Tire Size Number (mi)
20 x 1.75 164
26 x 1.5 212
26 x 1.9 220
26 x 2.125 225
26 x 1-3/8 222
700C Tubulars 224
700 x 20 221
700 x 25 224
700 x 28 225
700 x 32 227
27 x 7/8 223
27 x 1 226
27 x 1-1/8 228
27 x 1-1/4 230
Hope this helps.

Harry,
Thanks very much it helps alot. I've been suffering from withdrawal
symptoms from not being able to measure my distance travelled. I'd
been using a tape measure, of late. (It's very convenient when you're
covering my training mileage) ;-)
Regards,
Andy.
