I have been using a BC800 for a while now. I am not sure how it differs from the BC1600. Anyway, I have my pickup mounted on the left fork tube with the magnet mounted on the disk rotor. You can take the magnet out of the plastic holder and just epoxy it to the rotor.

The BC800 has speed, max speed, average speed, odo, trip odo, clock and trip time.
You can epoxy the magnet to the rotor, no problem. The magnet itself is only about 1/8" in diameter and 1/2" long. Pick a spot that won't interfere with the brake caliper. Make sure that you place it so that it is paralel to the long axis of the pickup. On mine I epoxied it in place and let it set up then went back and put on a second coat of epoxy that actually covered the whole magnet. It has been on there fore about 15,000 miles.

BTW, you can buy the old style BC800 from Bike Nashbar now for about $13 plus shipping.
