  1. Group: I'm looking for a computer I can mount on aero spokes. Is there an adapter or other work
    around available? Do any specific models mount better than others? Thanks for your time. Tom S

  2. on my aero spoke wheels, there's 3/4" or so of the aero spoke that is still round at the nipple end
    - mounts a standard magnet just fine.

    put the magnet there and move the sensor accordingly.

    Remember, you don't _have_ to use a round magnet that attaches to one spoke only.

    You can use the flat magnets that attach over two spokes.

    You're going to have to take a speed reading course and learn to lean down quite far in order to to
    read the computer display.

  5. It's the magnet, not the computer that is mounted on the spokes. Just about any magnet will work
    with any bike computer (the only exception I know is for some of the high-end Avocet computers).

    Several companies, including Specialized, sell a flat magnet for aero spokes. Link: spec-spec-

    Try an Avocet computer. Avocets use a ring on the hub, so spokes are not an issue.
