A tip for Avocet 20 Cyclometer fans:
if your fork blades have the typical holes at the top and bottoms that the manufacturer provided for letting out gasses during the brazing process, you can route the cable for the sensor through them so you do not have exposed wires going down your fork leg. I was able to do this by de-pinning the wires from the computer mount and fishing them through the fork leg holes with a legnth of fishing line.
I did this to the Avocet 20 I installed on my Peugeot PSV back in 84.
IIRC, I think I saw a pic of Greg Lemond's TDF Gitane having the same thing done shortly after I did mine.
