who has the oldest wireless bike computer?
Found this in my box of stuff. I don't remember exactly when I bought it or even what bike I was using it on. The box says 1990. Decided to see if it still worked and two new batteries later it works like a charm..figured the cockpit of my 1993 Serotta would be a great place for it.

This is C & V, what you really need is one of those Huret mechanical odometers,

https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-v...odometers.html I've got one of these for the Herse, with its own dedicated braze-on. And it's technically wireless as well :D https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...06bd2fd841.jpg |
I had one of these on my Miyata back in the 1980s. When the sensor stopped working, I had it in my car as a clock/rally timer for a while. I finally threw it away when the LCD bled out and the batteries leaked.

Like a dummy, I broke the hub ring for my Huret wireless odo-compu-meter that would have gotten me bonus points at Eroica.

They weren't particularly suited for quick release hubs either. I've never tried wireless computers, mostly because I don't see the point. I've got Cateye's on a few bikes, and Avocets on most of my vintage bikes. Here's a shot of the Avocet 20 on my International. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...3d2aa6_c_d.jpg while it's not wireless, it is possible to route the wires so there is very little visual clutter. https://live.staticflickr.com/8120/2...6d1776_c_d.jpg Steve in Peoria |
