My VDO MC 1.0 cyclocomputer has an inclinometer function that works from 
measuring distance and altitude.  The percent grade function is very 
accurate when going down a steep grade.  It's more erratic when going up 
a steep grade because the elevation changes so slowly.

On my recumbent I wouldn't be able to see the scale of the Sky Mounti 
inclinometer because my head isn't straight above the handlebar.  The 
Sky Mounti is overpriced.  The money would be better spent upgrading to 
an altimeter cyclocomputer.
