Anyone else figure out what longer wire kits with computers work with a run like on a Vision R-50?
From the handlebar, I'm looking at over 60 inches to anywhere on the rear wheel that I could mount the sensor to...that was the longest kit Cateye seemed to have at any store I checked around here. Hostel Shoppe doesn't seem to have longer. Even worse is that run up to the "bottom" bracket out front!
I suppose I could live without cadence monitoring, but since I'm going for a wired rear wheel setup (for the trainer that's coming soon), I could really use it, since it's so easy to not drop a gear and torque harder on the pedals at lower rpm's, and it's so bad on my knees...
Am I stuck building my own kit?
