It's all up to whether you stress the -cy- syllable. But then 2sleepy already said that.

I half grew up in Tennessee and have had friends from South Carolina, Georgia, and Mississippi, but I have never heard anyone say bi-sigh-cle. Hmm--maybe they do over in Texas--that's a whole different south.

some people pronounce it by-sigh-cl, - probably those who take it for an exotic means of transport

I have a 12 year old son of a friend who rides one and pronounces it uni-SIGH-cle. This is the Great Frozen Plains.
