Can't find anything to help gauge the size of the head unit. Anyone have a pic to share? Maybe it's already in the, "what road bike do you have" thread and I missed it. Thanks in advance..

This one (ok, two) puts it side-by-side with the QR. Might help a bit....

Thanks! That second one did help. Doesn't look as large as some reviews led me to believe.

This might be better. It does look a "little" large . . .

The skewer lever looks no wider or longer than ordinary to me.
The exaggerated depth doesn't bother me b/c of where it ends up. Much less obtrusive than most fork mount senders, IMO.

I use the Mavic WinTec with the cadence setup. I also have Avocets and Cateyes.
The Mavic is my favorite. It's not too large and I really like the front Skewer sending unit.

These look neat, but I have a question for those who have them.
If you fall on the left side, what are the chances of destroying the sender? And what do replacements cost?

I assume not having anything strapped to your fork? The sending unit is in the skewer. I think it's pretty ugly, but that's just me.
