Bontrager DuoTrap S digital sensor on a non-Trek road bike?
I'm upgrading from a Trek hybrid to a road bike and would like transfer my current speed+cadence sensor. I was using Bontrager DuoTrap S on the Trek, which fits flush on the inside of the chainstay as there is a built-in slot for it. My new road bike (a Pinarello Razha) will obviously not have this slot. Will it still be possible to use the sensor on it? I quite like it because it's small and has integrated speed+cadence, not to mention ant+ and bluetooth compatibility. I'm just worried it might fall off.
The sensor in question:
Bontrager: DuoTrap S Digital Sensor (Model #12319)

Not unless you plan on cutting a hole for it to fit in. Which I would strongly suggest DON'T even consider the hole part. Lots of other good sensors out there, duo trap is Trek only.

A $3000 bike deserves a brand new computer anyway. Ive used a vette vl110, a cateye strata double and I currently use a garmin edge 500 (only 189 at nashbar right now). I have been happy with all of these

Wha-?? Even zip tying won't work??
If I have to go for the new sensor route, which sensor has both ant+ and bluetooth and integrated speed and cadence measurements?
The sensor and computer are still quite new, as I bought them in January. I quite like the features and the LARGE display.

The Duotrap's shape makes it unusable on any other frame short of epoxying it into position.
Off the top of my head Wahoo BlueSC works on ANT+ and BLE.

The new garmin speed/cadence is hardly bulky:

Thanks! A review said they're not compatible with all wheel hubs. Do you think it would work with the back wheel of a Dura-Ace C24?
