Computer Hints

Route the wire up the BACK side of the fork, so it doesn't het ripped off by
brush, Other than that, be prepared to lose it occasionally ;-)

I have a hardtail with front suspension. I just got a new bike computer
and I was wondering if anyone has any hints on mounting the thing. Of
course, I have left what I deem is sufficient slack in the wire to allow
for turning of the front wheel and suspension travel. Is there anything
that I should know that I might not have thought of? I'm sure some of
you have crappy computer wire experiences. The thought of anything loose
scares me (especially when it's attached to an electronic component).

Once it leaves the fork, I loosely wrap mine around the front brake
cable/hose so the wire doesn't have to hang slack.

Cateye Enduro 2's have a nifty plastic spiral thing that allows
you to run the computer cable up a brake cable and keep it
tight so it doesn't snag on branches, etc.
I'd explain it more but my brain is already leaking from one
ear..

Take it out to dinner, buy it flowers, and get it nice and drunk...

Make sure you wiretie the cable coming out of the
computer to the handlebars. With 7 computers in use it makes a
difference.
