cyclocomputer
As I am using my bike mounted on a indoor trainer I need a computer pickup for the rear wheel. My computer wire won't reach the rear of the bike. So I am looking for a new cyclocomputer. Will a wireless computer work, or any suggestion for a computer with a pickup long enough to reach the rear of the bike.

They make long wire harnesses for applications like this. I've got one for my Mitty 3 that I use on my commuter bike

The Topeak Panoram has a long wire version for rear wheel sensor on the rear. You could piece together some extra wiring if you wnat to do it on the cheap.
