Installing Cateye computer on a Cannondale Slice fork
Having trouble putting a new computer (Cateye Mity 8) on a new Cannondale Slice CF fork.
Three main issues:
1. the 'mount' for the sensor bracket is too big. When I attach the sensor mount to the inside of the fork, it basically hits the magnet on his Mavic wheels
2. I tried putting the mount on the back of the fork but found that whenever I tightened the zip tie, it wasn't enough to keep it from slipping. The CF fork is very slippery and the zip tie is just not holding on.
Anyone else have troubles? I'm especially wondering about the sensor bracket mount.

I had the same problem with the sensor sliding on my Sigma. Put a strip of double sided tape in between the sensor and fork and all is well.
