I've read this thread with interest as I've just bought a speedtrap to go with the Bontrager forks (on Trek 7.5FX WSD) which I'm trying to pair with my new Incite 8i computer.
I've since also bought the spacer to get the speedtrap nearer to the spokes and then tried a cateye magnet as suggested.
Its still no good - does anyone have instructions for the speedtrap ? e.g. which way round the batteries go, where abouts the magnet is suposed to pass the speedtrap sensor, max distance from speedtrap to magnet etc ? I'm missing something obvious or have bought a dud.
Please help !

On my Trek 7.6 I had the lbs install two different trek computers including the new one they put out - they always fight to get it paired - the problem is the magnet is not strong enough because where the magnet is on the spoke is too far from the speed trap - solution was a stronger magnet -
Only road bike it paired with a standard magnet - the spokes are closer to the speed trap.
The new trek/bontreger computers are WAY more stable and better designed than last years series -
